      <title>Super-Scratch Foundation Northeast Regional Tournament (June 15, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p align="center" style="line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font color="#222222" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;font style="font-size: 16px;"&gt;*Please note: This is not an RIGCSA event. It is hosted by the Super-Scratch Foundation and open to all.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#004B80" style="font-size: 16px;" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;About the Event&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#004B80" style="font-size: 16px;" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;Two-person teams are comprised of an amateur paired with their club/course superintendent in a best ball (fourball) format. Proceeds from the event and other Foundation initiatives help support a critical need for the game of golf, rebuilding the pipeline of future caretakers of the courses we love.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style="line-height: 24px;"&gt;&lt;font color="#004B80" style="font-size: 16px;" face="Arial, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, sans-serif"&gt;The Northeast Regional event will offer a $10,000 scholarship purse with the top teams winning the opportunity to select a turf program to receive scholarship dollars from the Super-Scratch Foundation. Additionally, three (3) teams will win exemptions into the National Invitational at Huntingdon Valley in October.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p align="center" style="line-height: 27px; margin-bottom: 0px !important;"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
