WHY WE PLAY
the jimmy
THE JIMMY CLASSIC WAS CREATED TO HONOUR JAMES - A PASSIONATE GOLFER, SON, BROTHER, AND FRIEND - THROUGH A DAY ON THE COURSE. FOLLOWING JAMES’ PASSING AS THE RESULT OF A MOTORBIKE ACCIDENT, HIS BROTHER SAM ESTABLISHED WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY CALLED THE JAMES HOUGHTON MEMORIAL GOLF TOURNAMENT, AN EVENT CENTRED ON BRINGING PEOPLE TOGETHER THROUGH GOLF.
OVER TIME, THE EVENT EVOLVED TO INCLUDE A CHARITABLE FOCUS, EXTENDING JAMES’ LEGACY BEYOND THE DAY ITSELF. TODAY, THE TOURNAMENT CARRIES A NEW NAME WITH THE SAME PURPOSE. THE JIMMY CLASSIC TAKES ITS NAME FROM WHAT HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS ALWAYS CALLED HIM - JIMMY.
AT ITS CORE, IT’S ABOUT PEOPLE COMING TOGETHER ON THE COURSE AND CONTINUING TO CREATE POSITIVE CHANGE, JUST AS HE DID.
