PALM BEACH COUNTY, FL. — Adopt-A-Family of the Palm Beaches will host its Ninth Annual Better Ball Invitational on Friday, May 1, 2020.

As in previous years, the tournament will follow a one-stroke-play format, with golfers playing the better ball of the twosome. Registration is $500 per player or $1,000 per two-player team.
