HILLERS CAPTURE FIRST ANNUAL IGA/IWGA PARENT ~ CHILD CHAMPIONSHIP TITLE


On Saturday, June 30th the IGA and IWGA co-conducted the first annual Parent-Child Championship at Jester Park Golf Course in Granger.  The format mirrored that of the IGA Father-Son Championship played at Jester Park every August.  The 18-hole alternate shot tournament crowned champions in four divisions.  The Junior Division (8 & under), Junior Division (9 & 10), Young Adult (11 & 12) and the Open Division (13 & up).  

George Hiller and daughter Katelyn of Clive won the Open Division by three strokes over Mark Williams and daughter Jordan.  The Hillers posted an impressive score of 2-over-par 73.  Finishing in third place with a score of 77 was Trudie Higgs of Clive and grandson Alec Sankey of West Des Moines.  The inaugural first place plaques in the Young Adult Division went to Mary and Broc Everett of West Des Moines after a great round of 79.

On the Jester Park Executive Course, Dick and Maddy Davidson traveled from Clarinda to capture the title in the 9-10 Age Division by two strokes over the runner-up team of Shelley and Harrison Gudorf of West Des Moines.  Brian and McKenna Waller won the 8 & under Age Division with a round of 76.

Thanks and congratulations to all the teams that competed in this fun event.  We hope to see you all back in 2008!  Special thanks to the entire Jester Park staff who helped to make this a successful event!
