Local Tournaments has designed this website to be user friendly so that it will help tournament planners have an online venue that will minimize, the sometimes extensive, effort of planning and organizing a tournament.

Local Tournaments as your ultimate source will not only help organize your tournament but will also help promote your tournament to increase participation.

Founded in 2003, LocalTournaments.com began as an idea of Rev. Henry Brock of the Myrtle Beach Christian Retreat in Myrtle Beach South Carolina. Rev. Brock, having had the opportunity to participate in and host many golf tournaments and fundraising events, believed that there had to be a more simple, efficient, and effective way to bring tournament hosts together with participants as well as to help people and organizations raise money on a local level. Using a model similar to the one used by ebay.com (bringing buys and sellers together), Local Tournaments went live in January 2004. Since its inception, LocalTournaments.com has attracted several business and corporate leaders, IT professionals, and event planners who have helped develop the features, functionality, and services that are currently offered through LocalTournaments.com.

The future look very encouraging for LocalTournaments.com. Strong interest from potential investors across the US is allowing LocalTournaments.com to be both thorough and methodical in the pursuit of its mission to become the premier on-line (web-based) venue for amateur athletic tournaments and camps as well as fundraising events.
