WAI chapter golf tournaments return for 2026, offering networking, competition and support for scholarship programs across the industry.

The Wire Association International (WAI) is preparing for the return of its chapter golf tournaments as the 2026 season approaches. These events give industry professionals a chance to connect, compete, and support chapter initiatives after the winter break.

WAI chapter golf tournaments bring industry together

Each tournament offers more than just a day on the course. Instead, it serves as a platform for wire and cable professionals to build relationships, exchange knowledge, and strengthen existing connections. Participants can enjoy a mix of friendly competition and structured networking, while they also help support chapter-led programs.

Events support scholarship programs

Importantly, the WAI chapter golf tournaments play a key role in funding college scholarship programs organized by individual chapters. Proceeds from these events help create educational opportunities for future industry talent. In this way, the tournaments reinforce WAI’s broader commitment to workforce development and industry growth.

Midwest Chapter event set for July

The first scheduled event takes place with the Midwest Chapter on Thursday, July 20, at White Pines Golf Club. Registration is open, with participation priced at $200 per player. In addition, a dinner‑only option is available for $75. For more information, attendees can contact WAI Project Manager Vanessa Lewis.

Additional tournaments to be announced

Looking ahead, WAI will release details for other chapter tournaments in upcoming communications. Members should also check chapter web pages on WAI’s site for updates and registration information as more events finalize. This ongoing communication helps professionals plan their participation throughout the season.

Golf season offers networking and recognition

As the golf season begins, WAI chapter tournaments provide a relaxed setting for industry professionals to engage with peers while competing for bragging rights. With a focus on both networking and community support, these events continue as a popular tradition within the wire and cable industry.
