Allan Hancock College’s Fifth ‘Final Fore’ Golf Tournament At Santa Maria Country Club

SANTA MARIA, Calif. (KEYT) - The athletic department at Allan Hancock College hosted the fifth “Final Fore” golf tournament at the Santa Maria Country Club.

This yearly fundraiser benefits more than 300 Hancock College athlete students.

This year’s presenting sponsor is Pismo Beach’s highly rated charter bus company, AmericanStar Tours.

Teams of four tee off promptly at noon for a rapid version of gameplay, each team sponsored by community business partners.

After the tournament, participants gather at the country club for a viewing party of the NCAA National Championship Final Four basketball game.

Opportunities abound during gameplay to be entered in a raffle with a variety of prizes, one of which is a fan experience package to next year’s NCAA Men’s Basketball National Championship.

Allan Hancock College’s president, Kevin Walthers, stayed at Hole 13 for one of the tournament’s featured game-day packages, “Beat The President.”

Organizers say the yearly event, backdropped by idyllic Central Coast weather, is a growing tradition bringing the community together for a “hole-in-one” experience that benefits local college athletes.
