The 36th CGA Parent/Child Championship, which in recent years has been open to competitors of either gender, will be contested Saturday and Sunday (June 2-3) at the River Course at Keystone, and Lenny and Nick Nosewicz of Meadow Hills Golf Course will be back to defend their title.
The 36-hole event features a modified Chapman format on Saturday and foursome stroke play on Sunday, with separate gross and net competitions.
Fifty-eight two-person teams are in the field. Among them are several former champions in addition to the Nosewiczes — Gary and Alex Kephart of Patty Jewett Golf Course, the winners of this championship four times, the last coming in 2011; 2014 champions Steve and Chris Dillon; and 2013 winner Rick Tarasiewicz, who this year will team with Benjamin.
Also scheduled to play are University of Wisconsin golfer Griffin Barela and dad Woody; former CGA president Bill Fowler and son Will; and Guy and Nicklaus Mertz. Both Bill Fowler and Guy Mertz have won individual CGA championships, as has Nick Nosewicz, who captured the CGA Match Play title in 2015.
The Loel & Caleb Lierman Award will be presented to the team that includes a player 18 or younger with the lowest 36-hole gross score.
