About

The Story Behind
the Memorial Golf Classic

Our tournament was created to honor the now 30 State Troopers that have made the ultimate sacrifice for the people of Arizona, including most recently Trooper Tyler Edenhofer on July 25th, 2018. We help support families and offer college scholarships for the children of our members. AZTroopers works throughout the state supporting and promoting safety programs and charitable events such as the Law Enforcement Memorial Program , MADD, Concerns of Police Survivors, Special Olympics and Seat Belt Safety programs. The AZTroopers Memorial Golf Classic also awards annual college scholarships in honor of our fallen officers.

We provide support to many public safety programs throughout Arizona and take pride in our representation at memorial services in honor of law enforcement officers who have made the ultimate sacrifice.

Please join us for a day of golf and fellowship

The tournament is a four-person scramble event. There will be three flights and handicaps will only be used to determine which flight your team will play in. Players without an established handicap will estimate what they normally score, so be honest. This is for fun. Prizes are awarded to the top three teams in each flight. Additional luncheon tickets may be purchased for $35 per person. Reservations are required for additional luncheon guests. We will not be able to hold any
reservations without payment.

Course Information

Whirlwind Golf Club
5692 W North Loop Rd
Chandler, AZ 85226
(480) 940-1500

Whirlwind Golf Club is a truly unique Southwest golf experience sensitively designed to preserve the rich cultural heritage of the Gila River Indian Community. Surrounded by spectacular mountains, this unique golf venue was also home to the PGA’s Nationwide Insurance Tour, Gila River Golf Classic for five years.

The two courses, Devil’s Claw and Cattail, are masterpieces developed by Gary Panks covering 500 acres, with 250 acres of turfed area and 250 acres of desert landscape.  They will impress and challenge golfers of all levels of players while maintaining a sense of fairness and playability.  Featuring pristine and uncluttered views of the Sierra Estrella Mountains, the courses showcase the beauty of the natural terrain.

Both Devil’s Claw and Cattail were created to reflect the land while the waters still flowed on the reservation by combining the Gila River landscape including Cottonwood, Mesquite, Saguaro and Palo Verde trees with native grasses and rolling terrain. These challenging golf courses stretching well over 7000 yards also features gradual elevation changes, great bunker designs with multi-tiered greens.
