<strong>2019</strong> <strong>Amateur</strong> <strong>Long</strong> <strong>Drive</strong> (<strong>ALD</strong>(<strong>TM</strong>)) <strong>World</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> <strong>Returns</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>Barefoot</strong><br />
<strong>Resort</strong> & <strong>Golf</strong> <strong>August</strong> <strong>16</strong> & <strong>17</strong>, <strong>2019</strong><br />
1888 Press Release - The Third Annual <strong>ALD</strong>(<strong>TM</strong>) <strong>World</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> will return <strong>to</strong> <strong>Barefoot</strong> <strong>Resort</strong> & golf<br />
in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina for the second straight year.<br />
Columbia, SC - Each year the <strong>ALD</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> Series culminates in a <strong>World</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> for<br />
competi<strong>to</strong>rs of all ages and abilities. With male and female divisions for Youth (13 & under), Junior (14 - <strong>17</strong>),<br />
Open (all ages), Senior (44 - 59), Super Senior (60 - 69), 70+ (over 70), Military / Veteran, and Adaptive,<br />
anyone can compete. “We have competi<strong>to</strong>rs from age 4 <strong>to</strong> 77 this year,'' remarked <strong>ALD</strong> founder, Jeff<br />
Gilder. “There’s a division for everyone, regardless of age and ability.”<br />
<strong>ALD</strong> completed over 40 <strong>to</strong>urnaments in leagues in the USA and Canada for the 2018/19 season. The new<br />
<strong>2019</strong>/20 season begins September 1st with significant growth planned that includes doubling the number of<br />
<strong>to</strong>urnaments across the USA and Canada and adding more countries. The new season will include<br />
competitions in India, South America and Mexico.<br />
“Our largest division is the Open Men’s division,” says Gilder. “Many of those guys have aspirations for<br />
professional long drive, and will use <strong>ALD</strong> <strong>to</strong> work on their game. But, many of our hitters just enjoy the<br />
challenge <strong>to</strong> compete against someone of their own skill level. There’s nothing like getting on the tee box with<br />
only one goal...<strong>to</strong> hit the ball as far as possible with loud music and screaming fans in the background. It is<br />
exciting and extremely competitive!”<br />
Anyone who has not yet competed this season, but would like a shot at the <strong>World</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> may enter<br />
the Last Chance Qualifier on <strong>August</strong> 15th at <strong>Barefoot</strong> <strong>Resort</strong> & <strong>Golf</strong>. Several competi<strong>to</strong>rs from this event will<br />
transfer <strong>to</strong> the <strong>World</strong> <strong>Championship</strong> the following day.<br />
