United by golf: a charity tournament to support veterans

A charity scramble at the Kozyn Golf & Country Club — raising funds to send Ukraine's veteran golf team to the United States.

Veterans and golfers at the United by Golf charity tournament

The purpose of the tournament was to raise funds for the Ukrainian veteran team's trip to a tournament in the USA (Maryland) on June 7, 2024 — a competition held at one of the best courses in the country, Andrews Air Force Base, on the grounds of an active air base near Washington.

We invited patrons and everyone who wished to support the participants to join us at the Eco-recreational golf club “Kozyn” — Starokyivska St., village Kozin, Obukhiv district, Kyiv region — at 9:00 on Saturday, April 6th.

Game format

Scramble, veteran & golfer side by side

The tournament was played on 9 holes of the summer route of the Kozyn Golf & Country Club course, in a single playing day. The format was a scramble accounting for team handicap — each pair made up of one veteran and one experienced golfer.
