Tournament record
Our tournament is held in memory of Scott Robertson, a promising young Roanoke Country Club golfer. Scott, a 14 year-old ninth
grader, top student and sports enthusiast who had won his age division in several junior golf tournaments, died as a result of infectious
mononucleosis in the summer of 1982.
The Scott Robertson Memorial has given over $200,000 in Scholarships to Roanoke Valley juniors over 22 years. In 2005, our committee launched The Scott Robertson Memorial Junior Golf Academy, which serves as home of The First Tee of Roanoke Valley, a program that provides young people of all backgrounds an opportunity to develop life enhancing values through golf and character education. Through The First Tee of Roanoke Valley, the Scott Robertson Memorial will continue to touch the life of many deserving juniors in
the community.
