The 13th playing of The McNabb Cup is scheduled for Sept. 14, 2024.

An optional round is planned for Friday, Sept. 13., on a nearby course, location to be determined.

The Cup itself is contested over the Tom Bendelow-designed White Lake Golf Club (1916) that winds through lovely wooded fairways. A legendary Saturday evening soirée follows golf to celebrate the day, the winners and to sing the praises of golf.

The great Cup itself is enough to validate any golfer’s resume. It is played in honor of she who originally won it in 1922, Isabel McNabb. The Cup is a test of honor, of skill, of patience, and the ability to appreciate and celebrate golf’s great tradition of friendly competition. The 2024 Captain of the Cup, Mr. John Cova, welcomes all – men, women, and even youngsters – who would challenge for this great trophy.

Admittance into the field is by invitation; however, earnest contestants are always encouraged to apply to The Cup’s secretary, Mr. JH Davis Jr. To date, the event’s August and Ancient Committee has turned no one away.

The fee is a mere $85 for the day of The Cup (golf, cart, food and drink) and the evening’s celebration. Other costs (golf and dinner on Friday) are extra. There are several very reasonably priced local hotels and B&Bs for the traveling pilgrim who wishes to experience both days of play.

Please do advise the Secretary (jdavis2364@gail.com) of your intent to play no later than the deadline of Aug. 1, 2024. The earlier the better, as information and updates are sent to all players as the event date approaches.
