 We hope this finds you well. We wanted to share some valuable information with you regarding the registration process, eligibility requirements, and important deadlines for participation in the upcoming 2024 Conquerors Paragolf Championships. To ensure a smooth and successful registration, it is crucial to understand the guidelines and prerequisites. First item is the registration process. This year we’re starting a new registration procedure with an initial $100 registration deposit which holds your entry in the CPC. Registrations will be held to only 96 participants for this year’s event. Registrations are currently open and we have already reached the halfway mark for reserved spots. Your balance due on the registration is due on or before 02/01/2024. Total registration fees for this year’s CPC have been set at $300 for three rounds of championships golf, two dinners, and either lunch or breakfast each day of the event. In subsequent emails you will be receiving every 10 days, we will address scoring procedures, local rule exceptions, and event schedules. I hope you find these summaries helpful in navigating the registration and eligibility guidelines for the forthcoming 2024 Conquerors Paragolf Championships. Should you have any further questions or require additional information, please don’t hesitate to reach out. ATTENTION: We had to move the tournament dates due to the fact that the NCAA Final Four was scheduled for Phoenix the weekend after our original dates. As a result, hotels and airfares took a huge increase for the two weeks previous and week after. In order to stay with our initiative eo keep costs down as low as possible, we made the decision to move the event to Tuesday 5/14/24 thru Thursday 5/16/24. https://mqw.eds.temporary.site/.website_3a963ad1/4th-annual-conquerors-paragolf-championships/ |

October 28 Conquerors Update
Hope this finds you well and working on your game!! This is the next update for the 2024 Conquerors Paragolf Championships that will be held on May 14-16, 2024 at the Orange Tree Golf Resort in warm and sunny Scottsdale, AZ. A couple of announcements and developments to bring you current:
- Since opening registrations 10 days ago, we have had an overwhelming amount of registration reservations so far. As of today, we have half the field committed. We will be seriously thinking about raising the registration limit in order to accommodate everyone who wishes to participate.
- It appears that our host hotel facilities will be two properties this year, both located in close proximity to the golf course. We are working on the room block details so we can open room reservations in the next two weeks. We will post updates to social media and on our blog as details become available. We are trying to tie up as many ADA-compliant rooms as possible, reservations for which will be on a first come first served basis. If you require an accessible room, remember to reserve early!! Also, if you are so inclined, VRBO and Airbnb have some excellent deals in the area around the course. If you don’t mind sharing a house, there are some excellent deals on 2-4 bedroom homes.
- Questions have been asked about the prospects for “senior” divisions for the tournament. This will be entirely predicated on the registrations and whether we get at least three seniors in a particular division. As we move forward we will try to keep everyone posted on the situation.
- For our tournament this year, WR4GD Impairment categories will be used. NO SELF CLASSIFYING. You must have a WR4GD access pass and an official handicap from your country’s governing body (i.e. USGA, Golf Canada, etc) in order to compete.
- There will be a “grab and go” breakfast or lunch each day of the tournament. A player’s appreciation event will be held after the first round at Orange Tree Resort. More details and menus are forthcoming.
- We are planning a very special and unique awards banquet for this year’s event. This will be a “semi-formal” event, so we ask that everyone dress appropriately.
- In order to reduce the amount of stuff you need to pack home, this year we are moving to a redeemable certificate with which you can go online after you get home and acquire all “wearables” that will be provided each competitor and have them sent directly to your home.
- We have already started the planning for an adaptive golf clinic on March 31 at Orange Tree. Ping will be providing fitting services for those who are interested and will be assisting with the clinic. In addition, two of the golf staff at Orange Tree are certified adaptive instructors and will be assisting us as well. We should have a military/VGA update on this subject in the next newsletter.
- Registration procedure: Just want to make it clear so everyone understands, that the $100 deposit on registration secures your place in the tournament. The balance of the registration fee is not due until after the first of the year. We will make sure that full balance-due invoices are sent out to everyone with a due date of 1/15/24. Going into the holiday season, we’re trying to make this event as affordable as we can for everyone.
Stay tuned to our blog at https://www.tiu4all.org for constantly updated information. We will be sending another update two weeks from this weekend. Thank you and we’re looking forward to seeing you at the tournament, and remember that as entries will be limited for this event, get on board as soon as you can.
2024 Conquerors Registration Update
We also have some important news regarding our registration process for this coming year’s Conquerors Paragolf Championship. Our goal this year is to make competitive adaptive golf more affordable for everyone. As this is the first competitive tournament of the year, we understand that the entry fees can be a burden during the holiday season. To address this, we are introducing a two-tier pricing system for registration. If you register before 12/1/23, you will only need to pay a $100 deposit to secure your spot, with the balance of the registration fee due by 1/25/24. Please note that we are capping the number of adaptive entrants at 72, so this deposit will guarantee your spot in the tournament. The $100 deposit will be credited towards your total registration fee. The registration deposit form can be found here.
Also in case you missed the update, we were approved for WR4GD points being awarded in our tournament!!!
We will have another update here this coming weekend. Looking forward to seeing all of you in Scottsdale this spring.

Announcing the 2024 Conquerors Paragolf Championship
We are excited to announce several updates for the 2024 Conquerors Paragolf Championships, scheduled for 4/1/2024 thru 4/4/2024!
One of the main concerns regarding the current Adaptive Golf schedule is the high cost of player participation. We understand that Adaptive Golfers have family, work, and financial obligations, so we have been working hard to find ways to reduce or control the overall cost of playing Adaptive Golf. We welcome your feedback on the following ideas:
First, we have decided to move this year’s tournament to the Phoenix metro area for several reasons. Primarily, airline tickets to Phoenix are less expensive, and there are direct flights from almost every point of departure, making scheduling much easier for all players. Secondly, there is a more competitive hotel environment in Phoenix at this time of year. Thirdly, the sponsor base in Phoenix is ten times larger than in Tucson, which means we have an increased potential for raising more money for the event.
Lastly, the selection and quality of golf facilities in Phoenix are also ten times larger than in Tucson. We have submitted RFPs to eight top-ranked golf facilities in the Phoenix metro area, all of which are managed and maintained by the best management companies in the business. We have ensured that each potential facility is adaptive-friendly, has the capability of custom placement of tees (to ensure fair yardages), and has first-class golf experience facilities.
Next, we have decided to move our event to two weeks earlier than our traditional date, which was one week before the Master’s, to accommodate our other tournament director friends. This change will make it easier for everyone to play more events before the summer heat. This year’s tournament will be held from 4/1/2024 – 4/4/2024.
Lastly, we are excited to announce an additional incentive. We will rebate a portion of your entry fee in the form of a prepaid Visa card which will be handed out at the player welcome meeting before the tournament. We hope this will assist in offsetting your total expenditure and make participating in the tournament more accessible.
We have many exciting new additions to this year’s event, including improved food and beverage options. This event will also be a WR4GD points event and will be a qualifying tournament for the upcoming Silver City Invitational (more information coming soon) in Reno, NV in October of next year.
Registrations will open on September 1st, 2013, and there will be an “early birdie” special for those who register early (prior to 11/15/2013). This will be an “all abilities” event, with our associates and sponsors playing in a separate 18-hole competition on the first day of the event.
Stay tuned to this website and social media for announcements over the next few weeks concerning our host golf facility, host hotel, and tournament schedule.
