Our Organization
Growing the game, from the ground up.
Founded in 2020, the Super-Scratch Foundation is a 501c3 non-profit organization aiming to give back to an often underserved and overlooked side of the golf industry: turfgrass and agronomy. We believe in investing in the future of the industry by supporting the education and training of the next generation of superintendents. Each year, The Super-Scratch raises scholarship funds to support students that pursue a career in agronomy.
The Super-Scratch Foundation's main event is The Super-Scratch Invitational, the nation's first tournament pairing a club's Superintendent with a top amateur. Hosted at Huntingdon Valley Country Club, the Super-Scratch Invitational draws teams from some of the finest golf clubs across the nation. Winning teams are given the opportunity to allocate a portion of the Super-Scratch Scholarship Fund to universities of their choosing.
Our Mission
Investing in the next generation.
We believe in investing in the education and training of the next generation of superintendents to ensure a sustainable future for the industry. We are committed to building strong partnerships with colleges and universities, as well as with the golf community, to raise awareness about the importance of supporting education in turfgrass management and agronomy.
Our foundation seeks to create opportunities for students who may face financial barriers to pursue their passions and achieve their goals. Through our work, we aim to make a positive impact on the lives of young people and to contribute to the growth and success of the game of golf and the turf its played on.
