The Riverwood Golf and Athletic Club offers a wide variety of tournaments every year. A few of the tournaments we host include:

Riverwood Amateur
The Riverwood Amateur is perhaps Riverwood Golf & Athletic Clubs’ most broadcasted tournament of the year. This event is a 36-hole handicapped stoke play event. The entry fee for this golf tournament is $180 per person. This tournament is a qualifier for the North Carolina State Amateur Championship.

Interclub
The Interclub is an ongoing series of tournaments. The members of Riverwood Golf & Athletic Club who join the Interclub team have the privilege of traveling to different golf courses and competing against their members. Fees for the Interclub team  $20 per tournament played.

Adult/Junior
The Adult/Junior golf tournament is a great chance for dad/mom to take their child and introduce them to a competitive environment. The main purpose for this tournament is to spark interest in the junior (in a fun-filled environment) to continue growing in golf. The cost is $25 for each Adult/Junior team. There are prizes and a cookout for each team included in the entry fee.

Par Three Tournament
The Riverwood Golf & Athletic Club Staff offers a wide variety of tournaments that will hopefully gain attention and participation from its members and its’ Par Three Tournament is a prime example. Every hole on the golf course plays as a par three. However, this is no ordinary Par Three Tournament meaning; the tee boxes are located in very obscure places on the golf course. Players could tee off from various locations such as a maintenance path, the following hole, or even on top of a bunker somewhere on the course. It’s great fun and the 18-hole stroke play event only costs $30.

HGC vs. RGC
The Hedingham vs. Riverwood tournament is formatted after the Ryder Cup. One golf professional from each club heads each team and picks players whom he thinks will deliver the best possible outcome for the team. It is a 36-hole, two day tournament that is played at both courses.

Beat The Staff
The “Beat the Staff” golf tournament is a time for every member to take a shot at beating Riverwood Golf and Athletic Club’s professional staff. The format for the “Beat the Staff” tournament is a four man best ball event. Every player that plays must be a member and teams can be organized by each member.

Tip and Tuck
The Tip and Tuck golf tournament is the most challenging golf tournament for players at Riverwood Golf and Athletic Club.
