The four-man-team tournament will be held on May 9 at Pelham’s Ballantrae Golf Club, and will benefit the Philip Mahan Davis Foundation.

Several levels of tournament sponsorship also are available. Level 1 sponsorship is $200, and includes a tee and green sponsor sign.

Level 2 sponsorship is $500, and includes a tee and green sponsor sign and free entry for one team. Level 3 sponsorship is $750, and includes a tee and green sponsor sign, free entry for one team and two rounds of golf at Ballantrae.

Title sponsorship is $1,500, and includes a tee and green sponsor sign, free entry for one team, four rounds of golf at Ballantrae and a banner at the tournament’s registration. Registration deadline for sponsors is Tuesday, April 30.

All proceeds will benefit Shelby County law enforcement officers, firefighters and their families.
