2016 will also be the last year, where Barclays is the title sponsor of the tournament. With the 2016/2017 season, the title sponsor will change to Northern Trust and be called 'The Northern Trust'. As every year, The Barclays will raise a lot of money for local charities. In 2015 alone, the tournament generated over $1.4 million and since its inception, charities received donations of more than $45 million.
Be a part of this exciting event and join us and the great volunteer team, that allows the tournament to be so successful. Since we volunteer in Player Transportation - and Andreas is one of the committee chairman - we would love to see you there.
