Thank you for making the 32nd Annual Sam Sylvia Golf Tournament a success!
The Nantucket Boys & Girls Club is immensely grateful to everyone who joined us at Sankaty Head Golf Club on Sunday, June 8 and Monday, June 9, 2025. This year’s sold-out event brought together passionate supporters, golfers, and philanthropists for two incredible days of competition and camaraderie, all in support of the Nantucket Boys & Girls Club. Thanks to your generosity, we raised vital funds that will directly benefit the children and families we serve year-round.

A Legacy of Impact and Tradition

The Sam Sylvia Golf Tournament is more than just a day on the course—it’s a tradition that brings together dedicated supporters of the Nantucket Boys & Girls Club for an unforgettable experience at the iconic Sankaty Head Golf Course. With over 90% of participants returning year after year, the tournament fosters camaraderie, friendly competition, and a shared commitment to making a lasting impact on Nantucket’s youth.

Each foursome slot is entrusted to its Team Captain and maintained until the Captain chooses to relinquish it. To preserve the tournament’s continuity and spirit, if a Team Captain or their foursome cannot participate in a given year, they may:

  • Transfer their slot for one year to a chosen individual (the chosen individual pays the foursome fee),
  • Make a donation equivalent to the value of the foursome to retain their position, or
  • Gift the opportunity for one year to another qualified participant (the Team Captain pays the foursome fee).

This thoughtful structure ensures that the Sam Sylvia Golf Tournament remains a meaningful gathering of individuals dedicated to supporting the Club’s mission. More than just a premier golf event, it’s a celebration of philanthropy, tradition, and community—one that continues to change lives, one swing at a time.
