WELCOME TO THE 2025 OVTRF GOLF TOURNAMENT
The Ottawa Valley Turfgrass Research Foundation is thrilled to invite you to our Annual OVTRF Golf Tournament, a premier event that brings together professionals and enthusiasts from across the turfgrass industry. This year, we’re proud to host the tournament at Camelot Golf & Country Club, one of Canada’s most acclaimed and visually stunning golf courses, located just minutes from downtown Ottawa.
About Our Hosts: Camelot Golf & Country Club
Nestled in the scenic community of Cumberland, Camelot Golf & Country Club is a standout destination for golf lovers, consistently ranked among the top courses in Canada. Designed by celebrated golf architect Thomas McBroom, a member of the Ontario Golf Hall of Fame, Camelot showcases his trademark blend of strategic challenge and natural beauty. The course stretches up to 7,047 yards from the back tees, with five tee decks that cater to golfers of all skill levels.
Camelot’s design offers a unique and dynamic experience, transitioning from meadowland links-style holes shaped by fescue roughs to tree-lined parkland terrain that winds through rolling hills. The course demands thoughtful play, rewarding both precision and creativity—qualities that made it a fitting host for prestigious events such as the 2012 Men’s Canadian Amateur, where PGA Tour winner Mackenzie Hughes claimed victory.
Beyond the fairways, Camelot provides first-class amenities, including a state-of-the-art practice facility, elegant clubhouse, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere that reflects its commitment to excellence. Whether you're a competitive golfer or just out to enjoy a beautiful day on the course, Camelot offers an unforgettable experience.
We look forward to welcoming you to Camelot Golf & Country Club for a day of competition, camaraderie, and support for turfgrass research. Join us at one of Canada’s premier golf venues for a memorable event—and a great cause.
WE'RE EXCITED TO HAVE YOU

The Rules & Prizes
The four-man best ball features teams of four players. In this format, each team's players play their own ball throughout each hole. The team's score for the hole is the lowest score shot by a single member on that hole. For example, if Player A and Player B are partners and one makes a 4 and the other a 5, with their own balls respectively, the group takes a 4 for that hole. The team then records its score and maintains that format for all 18 holes.
If participating in the BOJANGLE, the Superintendent and Golf Pro will keep a separate score card with their best ball.
For this tournament, men will tee off of the #3 TEES, women will tee off of the #5 TEES.
Give it your best shot! Prizes are to be won for closest to the pin (hole 2), longest drive (hole 12 with Aquatrols), closest drive to the hose (hole 11 with Vanden Bussche) and the teams with lowest score for best ball and bojangle. Also, pay$5 and try to beat the pro (hole 10). Winners names will be drawn from to win half the pot. The other half will go back to supporting the OVTRF.
