New Collegiate Tour

The Ohio Collegiate Golf Tour is a competitive summer program designed to support players, connect coaches, and create meaningful opportunities for collegiate golfers. While all college golfers are strong players, not all have access to consistent, high-level competition—this is where the tour, primarily based in Northern Ohio, fills the gap. If the student-athlete in your circle is looking for competitive rounds this summer, this is an opportunity worth considering.
