ORLANDO, FL (March 9,2005) – Falcon's Fire Golf Club will host a local qualifying event for the 2005 RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship on the evening of April 11th.
Area golfers are invited to compete in the premier event in power golf. Qualifying begins at 5:00pm and concludes at 7:00pm.
Competition will take place in four adult divisions: open, ladies, senior (45-54) and super senior (55+).
Entry fees are $30 for open and senior division hitters, $20 for women and super seniors. Golfers hit six drives per entry, with their longest official drive determining their place in the final standings. Entries are being taken either in advance, or in person to Alex Forsyth on April 11th.
Top finishers advance to the RE/MAX district competition later in the summer. The ultimate goal is to earn a spot at the 2005 RE/MAX WLDC finals, which take place in Mesquite, Nevada on October 18-22, 2005.
"We're excited to be part of the first-phase qualifying for this hugely popular international event," said Falcon's Fire's Tournament Director, Alex Forsyth "We're hoping someone from our area makes it all the way to the RE/MAX world finals next fall. We have plenty of big hitters here in Orlando, so I think we have a chance of sending someone to the show. We'll see."
Falcon's Fire Golf Club is located at 3200 Seralago Boulevard in Kissimmee, (one mile east of Interstate 4 on Osceola Parkway). The phone number is 407 239-5445.

"I can't wait for area golfers to experience for themselves the excitement of competitive long drive," said Alex Forsyth. "You feel a real rush of adrenaline while standing on the tee waiting to launch a long ball down the middle of the fairway."
