What is the Drives for Disciples Marathon?
Whether you’re a beginner or pro golf player – all are invited to have fun raising support for Kingdom Focus Coaching on Tuesday, May 14, 2024. When compared to a traditional golf tournament, golf marathons are more fun and more profitable for the benefitting charity.
Here's the Fun Part - Yes, you will play 100 holes. No, we're not kidding. With adjusted play rules, many golfers exceed 100 holes. In fact, the record for a golf marathon is an amazing 409 holes in one day! Several changes in the format of the game are made to speed up the play...
Every golfer has his own cart and plays at his own speed
Golfers may hit multiple balls, and each ball counts as one hole played
We play "ready golf"
No looking for lost balls, OB's, etc; simply drop another ball and keep hitting
Whenever your score on a hole reaches double bogey, pick up, score the hole as completed, and move on to the next hole
You may play any hole, or series of holes, in any order as many times as you want
On the green, any putt inside the leather is a "gimme"
Ok, What's the Catch? Well, there really isn't any catch. Each golfer who participates in the Golf Marathon will be required to do three things:
Give a day & serve the ministry by playing golf at the golf course. Shotgun start.
Sponsor yourself for at least $1 per hole. Your $100 donation is due in advance and is tax deductible.
Solicit sponsorships from business associates and friends with a goal of raising an additional $24+ per hole… that amounts to $2,500 each golfer can raise for this most worthwhile cause. So, you can see with a field of 40 golfers, each raising $2,500, we could reach our goal of $100,000. WOW!
But, I Still Have Some Questions! Good! Pick up the phone and give us a call. Duffy Johnson is not only organizing this event but is going to play as well. Duffy believes wholeheartedly in the mission and vision of Kingdom Focus Coaching which is to “equip disciples of Jesus Christ to make disciples and to mobilize the church for Kingdom work” and is dedicated to this campaign's success.
