“There’s been an explosion in golf since the pandemic hit which, if one good thing came out of the pandemic, it brought people back to golf.  We’re seeing more ladies playing.  We’re seeing more kids playing,” Berry Hills’ Head Golf Professional Barry Evans said.  “In this tournament in particular, we have players probably ranging from 15 to 69 years old.  So that’s just really neat to see all these girls and ladies of all ages playing.”

2022 marks the third year of Kalaskey Orthodontics as the title sponsor of this event.  This championship features 31 of the best female golfers from West Virginia from 15 to 68.
