Tournament Sponsorship & IT Support for The Buddies Charity Golf

The Buddies Charity Golf Tournament Greater Toronto Area Sponsor since 2018

BALANCED+ has been a proud sponsor of The Buddies charity golf tournament since 2018, providing website development, technical support, and sponsorship for this 29-year-old event that has raised over $100,000 for cancer-related charities.

What started as a jovial way to spend $500 in winnings from a hockey championship quickly became something much bigger. Over 29 years, The Buddies has grown into a beloved annual charity golf tournament that brings golfers of all skill levels together for a day of fun on the green, and in the process, has raised over $100,000 for cancer-related charities.

The tournament is built on a simple idea: bring family and friends together, enjoy a great day of golf, and channel that energy into supporting cancer research and care. It’s a grassroots effort powered by volunteers, sponsors, and a community that shows up year after year.

As The Buddies tournament grew over nearly three decades, its organizers needed a stronger digital presence to match the event’s reputation. The tournament’s website needed to deliver a smooth experience for participants, from registration and sponsorship information to event details and updates. As a volunteer-run event, the organizers needed a technology partner who could handle the technical side so they could focus on what matters: running a great tournament and raising money for cancer charities.

Volunteer organizers lacked the technical expertise to maintain the site
Technical issues during event planning created unnecessary stress for organizers

Supporting cancer-related charities and bringing family and friends together are values that BALANCED+ holds in high regard. When the opportunity came to sponsor The Buddies and lend our IT expertise, it was an easy yes. Since becoming a tournament sponsor in 2018, we’ve worked to ensure the technology behind the event is as smooth as the fairways.

Website Development & UX Improvements

Redesigned and improved the tournament website to deliver a better experience for participants, sponsors, and anyone learning about the event.

Ongoing Technical Support

Providing responsive technical support to resolve issues as they arise, so organizers can focus on the tournament instead of troubleshooting technology.

Tournament Sponsorship

Serving as a proud tournament sponsor since 2018, contributing financially to an event that has raised over $100,000 for cancer-related charities over 29 years.

Since joining as a sponsor and technology partner in 2018, BALANCED+ has helped The Buddies deliver a more polished, stress-free experience for everyone involved. Improved website UX means participants can find event details and register with ease, while our technical support ensures the organizers never have to worry about the technology failing them when it matters most.

The Buddies continues to grow, bringing golfers together each year for a day of camaraderie and fundraising. With over $100,000 raised for cancer-related charities across 29 years, the tournament is proof that community spirit and a good cause can turn a simple idea into lasting impact. BALANCED+ is proud to be part of that tradition.
