As a member of the Independent Insurance Agents Association of Maryland, we are looking for Junior Golfers to play in the Maryland Qualifier on July 7, 2011 at the Argyle Country Club in Silver Spring, Maryland.

Doug Hines, President of Ewing Hines & Associates, has organized and run this state qualifier since 2004 along with another local independent agent, Steve Earll.  Unfortunately, Steve Earll passed away last year.  So in honor of Steve's hard work, we have renamed it the Stephen Earll Memorial Junior Golf Classic. 

It is open to any boys age 13-18.  The winner goes to the 43rd Trusted Choice Big I National Championship August 1-4, at the Reunion Golf and Country Club in Madison, Mississippi.   This Championship is the nation’s largest junior stroke-play tournament, and it has been won by several well-known professional golfers including Tiger Woods (1990 and 1992).  As a matter of fact, since 2004 the state of Maryland has actually had two Maryland boys win this national championship.  That is why we are looking for more junior golfers in the state.

If interested, you can contact Doug Hines or visit the Stephen Earll Memorial Junior Golf Classic  to register or to sponsor the tournament.
