The KTA Super Stores Big Island Seniors Golf Tournament was first hosted 35 years ago and has become a beloved annual tradition on Hawaiʻi Island. Sponsored by KTA Super Stores since the very beginning, this tournament plays a meaningful role in supporting local youth.
Proceeds from the event go directly toward scholarships for graduating seniors of the Big Island Junior Golf Association (BIJGA). Through the generosity of KTA Super Stores and community participation, BIJGA is able to recognize and support the academic and personal achievements of its senior members.
The tournament is limited to the first 160 golfers—register early to be part of this special event that helps invest in the future of our island’s youth!
