The Collegiate Players Tour started summer play in 1994. In October of 1995, the tour became a 501(C) (3), non-profit, tax-exempt corporation with the intent of providing summer golf competitions for college-aged men and women, ages 17 – 24.

The Collegiate Players Tour is administered by former SMU Coach and Odessa College Athletic Director, Barry Rodenhaver. A Board of Directors comprised of seven prominent business people oversee and approve the annual running of the NCAA and USGA approved tour.

Every effort is made to make the tournaments financially feasible. Nominal membership fees, coupled with extremely low entry fees, discounted hotel rates, three complimentary meals, free-range balls and a golf cart for the 36-hole day – make the CPT the most affordable, competitive, amateur golf competition in the country. The summer ends with a National Championship with NO entry fee, all meals provided, (except two) and amateur Ranking Points awarded to the top ten (10) male and female contestants.

The CPT has four national sponsors, State Farm Insurance, ServiceMaster Clean, Enterprise Rent-A-Car, and HeadLine Sports. Without their manpower, organizational skills, and belief in young people, the Tour would be unable to operate.

Please review the 2008 CPT summer schedule, submit your membership application, and enjoy a summer of competitive, affordable, and friendly collegiate golf.
