West Hartford Telecommunications Provider Sponsors Golf Tournament

Universal Connectivity supports the 2021 CSGA Amateur Tournament as a presenting sponsor 

The mission of Universal Connectivity is to connect people to their world, and, this summer, the company will connect golfers in tournament play at the 119th Connecticut Amateur Championship. As a presenting sponsor, Universal Connectivity is assisting in bringing the tournament back to the Hartford Golf Club June 14-18, 2021. 

This year’s event marks the 10th time Hartford Golf Club has hosted the amateurs. The championship was last held at the club in West Hartford in 1990. 

“We’re excited to have the championship return to the Hartford Golf Club this year and look forward to supporting the players, hosts and all the dedicated volunteers,” said James Smith, president and chief connector at Universal Connectivity. “We are a part of the greater West Hartford community and enjoy taking an active role in this type of event right here in our backyard.”  

Operated by the Connecticut State Golf Association, the tournament pits amateur golfers from across the state against each other as they compete for the title of the state’s top amateur golfer. The association is committed to promoting the game, safeguarding its integrity, preserving the game’s traditions and enhancing the playing environment for all golfers. The CSGA has been the steward of golf in Connecticut since 1899.

The Connecticut Amateur Championship is the CSGA’s oldest event. It’s also one of the nation’s oldest state amateur golf championships. The tournament format challenges Connecticut’s best amateur golfers over two rounds of stroke play to determine the low 32 match play qualifiers. Two rounds of match play each day culminate in a 36-hole final that leads to the crowning of Connecticut’s top amateur player.
