Why Fall Tournaments
Outperform Summer
—And How to Plan Now
The case for pivoting your momentum into a profitable Fall event.
At Colorado Under Par, we’ve managed events year-round—from spring scrambles to midsummer mega-tournaments. But year after year, the data points in one clear direction: Fall tournaments consistently deliver more value.
If you’re wrapping up a strong July, now is the time to pivot your attention to what could become your most successful event of the year.
Here’s why:
1. Fall Events Attract Higher-Quality Participants
Golfers in the fall tend to be more serious, more consistent, and more committed to supporting a cause. The cooler temps and quieter calendars mean more focused engagement—on-course and off.
In our last 3 seasons, average per-player fundraising was 20% higher in September-October events than during summer months.
2. Sponsors Still Have Budget to Spend
Q4 is the time when many companies are assessing their remaining marketing or philanthropic budgets. By getting in front of them now, you give them a valuable opportunity to use those dollars before year-end.
Pro Tip: Offering customized sponsor packages in August closes deals fast.
3. You Can Repurpose Your Summer Success
Now’s the perfect moment to use July’s:
- Event photos in sponsor decks
- Player testimonials in promos
- Data lists for follow-up campaigns
You already have the content. Fall is your time to double down on it.
4. Prime Fall Dates Are Going Fast
The top golf courses in Colorado—and the most sought-after weekends—are filling quickly. Booking your event now ensures you get the venue, pricing, and timing that align with your goals.
🔗 Final Takeaway
If July was good, Fall can be great. Momentum isn’t something you ride—it’s something you create with intention. The window to lock in a high-impact Fall event is open right now.
Let’s still make this year your biggest win!
