In 2008, PGA TOUR player Charley Hoffman established the Charley Hoffman Pro-Am to benefit the San Diego Junior Golf Association. The 2009 event at Del Mar Country Cub was a huge success, raising $120,000 for the SDJGA. PGA TOUR Professionals in the field included Phil Mickelson, Pat Perez, Chris Riley, Kevin Stadler, John Schroeder, John Mallinger, Ricky Barnes, Alex Cejka, Bill Hass, Tom Pernice, Chez Reavie, Colt Knost, Ryuji Imada and the 2009 Buick Invitational Champion, Nick Watney.

"I sometimes wonder if I would be where I am today if it wasn't for junior golf. Not only did I have the opportunity to test my game against the best juniors in the world, I had the opportunity to build relationships with some wonderful people. I truly believe the SDJGA impacted my life in a profound way and that is why I am dedicated to helping ensure the next generation of junior golfers has the same positive experience I did. The proceeds from the Charley Hoffman Pro-Am will assist the SDJGA in providing high quality events and provide financial assistance to those who need it because every junior who wants to play should have the opportunity."

Craig Stadler is one of the most exemplary players to have participated with the San Diego Junior Golf Association. Since turning pro in 1975, Craig has recorded 12 PGA TOUR victories, including the Master's. Craig has been a key financial contributor to the organization for more than 30 years. The Craig Stadler Pro-Am, held until 2002, helped generate more than $1,000,000 for the SDJGA.  "I owe so much of what I have to Junior Golf. I really enjoyed playing with kids my own age and learning how to be competitive. Donating proceeds from my Pro-Amto Junior Golf was the least I could do to pay back what they gave me."

Phil Mickelson

Phil has generously underwritten sponsorship of the PHIL MICKELSON JUNIOR PLAYERS CHAMPIONSHIP since its inception. Phil continues to be one of the SDJGA's most respected and recognized alumni members. Winner of over 23 professional golf titles, including the 2004 Masters Tournament, he and his wife Amy support many worthy causes through their family foundation. The San Diego Junior Golf Association is extremely proud to have had Phil Mickelson as a past member. As stated by himself, the Association was a guiding force in his early development both on and off the course.

 

Pat Perez

North vs. South Team Cup Pat was a highly competitive member of the SDJGA from 1984 to 1993, and captured the Callaway Golf Junior World Golf Championship in 1993. He is now a successful member of the PGA TOUR who attributes his achievements in golf to his father by getting him involved with the SDJGA at an early age."

 

 

Chris Riley Junior

Chris Riley has sponsored the CHRIS RILEY JUNIOR for the past few years. In 2004 he began sponsoring the JOHN W. BROWN MEMORIAL. John Brown was not only one of the original founders of the San Diego Junior Golf Association, but was an influential member of the Riley "golfing family" serving as a mentor for Chris and his father Mike (an outstanding amateur player in his own right). Chris wanted to further memorialize "Brownie" with a tournament in his honor. Chris Riley was an exemplary member of the SDJGA going on to become a four-time All-American selection at the University of Las Vegas where he graduated with a Communications Degree in 1996. He is now a member of the PGA TOUR.

 

Don Stadler Memorial

Betty Stadler has been a long time supporter of the SDJGA since 1997 and remains a member of the Association's Board of Directors. Betty's late husband Don also found time to be an active volunteer while still operating a successful business, Stadler Drug Company in Pacific Beach, California, until his retirement. The Stadler family's many contributions have materially improved SDJGA programs over the years. We are honored to have Betty Stadler (mother of past SDJGA member Craig Stadler) as a continuing sponsor.

 

Paul Benoit Memorial

Joan has been a long time supporter of the San Diego Junior Golf Association starting in 1968 when she served in key volunteer positions at the inaugural Junior World Golf Championships. Her interest in playing the game, on a recreational level, led her to Tecolote Canyon Golf Club where she made the acquaintance of Paul Benoit, the facility's Assistant Manager. Paul shared Joan's love of golf as well as baseball, both being Padres' season ticket holders. Upon Mr. Benoit's passing in 1983, Joan began her sponsorship and establishment of the Paul Benoit Memorial Junior. She also created, in 1998, an endowment that will ensure the event's place on the SDJGA schedule of summer tournaments in perpetuity.

Ms. Adaskin also underwrites the presenting of the Tim Robinson Award to any boy or girl who successfully defends a tournament title in the 15-17 Age Division. The SDJGA is richer as an organization from the insights and contributions of individuals such as Joan Adaskin. Her continued support of our goals and objectives is much appreciated.

 

John Wirges Memorial

John Wirges a long time friend of the SDJGA, was a publicist at the Naval Training Center. He passed away in May of 1991. During his active participation with the Association, he became a friend to many juniors and Craig Stadler in particular. Craig Stadler began his sponsorship of the John Wirges Memorial in August of 1991.

 

The Cubic Corporation Classic

Cubis has been a mainstay on the SDJGA schedule for over 25 years. The tournament more recently has been underwritten by the Walter J. & Betty C. Zable Foundation. This Foundation, named for Cubic founder Walter Zable and his wife, has also been instrumental in funding many SDJGA program upgrades in 2003. Founded in San Diego in 1951, Cubic Corporation's two major segments, Cubic Defense Applications and Cubic Transportation Systems, provide a wide spectrum of products and services to both the military and civilian markets. Cubic Corporation has been traded on the American Stock Exchange since 1959 under the symbol of CUB.
