2021 March Madness Information
Modelled after the world famous college basketball phenomenon we have created our own version of the madness to crown Alberta's Favourite Golf Course year after year. A single elimination bracket that consists of 8 regions that categorize 64 of Alberta's most iconic courses.
How it works:
Over the course of the tournament we will post polls that will feature two courses vying for your support to send them to the next round. Voting will take place on our Twitter page, Facebook posts and stories, and our Instagram story. Each matchup lasts 24 hours and the winner from each matchup will be determined by tallying the votes from all four platforms. We encourage you to like, share, retweet, repost, whatever it takes to spread the word and make sure your favourite course moves on.
So click on the icons below to follow our social platforms and make sure you're never missing out on opportunity to vote for your favourite courses each round of the tournament.
Pick the Alberta courses that will be in the bracket!
We give YOU the power to pick the courses that make it to the illustrious bracket with our Qualifying Tournament Survey! Our bracket contains eight regions that each have eight courses. Click the button below to vote for the eight courses that will represent the YEG, YYC, YEG Private, YYC Private, North, South, Central, or North Regions. Your votes will seed the top 8 for each region!
If you could take a few minutes to complete the survey, and tell all your golf buddies to complete the survey so that we can get the most accurate representation of the top 8 in each region, that would be greatly appreciated! Deadline to submit your votes for the final bracket is March 10th.
Our survey is now closed and the seeding finalized for each region.
