Thank you for supporting the 20th ANNIVERSARY of CMCC’s BackSwing Golf Tournament!
To celebrate this milestone, we promised that BackSwing '24 would be bigger and better than ever... with more contests, prizes, and fun. And we delivered!
Selling out in record time, we hosted our scramble shotgun tournament once again at the impeccably groomed, private 18-hole championship course, Bayview Golf & Country Club on Thursday, September 12.
As luck would have it, the weather fully cooperated and was absolutely beautiful! The sun was shining, the golfers were smiling, and the prizes were abundant!
The event started at 9:00 a.m. with a clinic treatment outreach hosted by the Division of Clinical Education. The group of interns, supervised by a CMCC clinician, offered a 20 minute treatment to get golfers warmed up prior to the shotgun start. Thank you to everyone who participated in our outreach!
The tournament began sharply at 10:30 a.m. and a BBQ lunch and treat was served throughout the day. Golfers also received complimentary drink tickets to ensure they kept hydrated during play.
New this year, our tournament adapted the Golf Genius App to help eliminate ties! Each scorecard had an individual code on it to allow players to login and track scores. While scores were hidden from other teams, this allowed the Bayview Pro Shop to keep an eye on any scores that were close together. When each foursome finished their round and checked-in at the Pro Shop, they were told to ‘hold onto your clubs’ if there was potential for a possible PLAY OFF to break a tie! However, our winning foursome came in two strokes better than the rest, allowing everyone to head straight into cocktail hour!
Cocktail hour started around 4:30 p.m. where golfers enjoyed light refreshments while networking and waiting to find out who the winners were!
Following cocktail hour golfers were treated to Bayview’s Signature dinner buffet, which included Chef grilled BBQ to order: beef tenderloin, chicken breast, and fresh salmon fillet; pasta, sides and salads, and finished off by delicious desserts.
Since its inception in 2005, CMCC BackSwing golf tournaments have raised more than $1.3 million. These funds go towards educational initiatives to ensure that CMCC maintains its role as an international leader in chiropractic education, research and patient care. This year, we are proud to say the tournament raised $70,000! We could not have done this without the generous support of our sponsors, donors, participants, and volunteers – thank you!
