WHITE BALLS is an association which strives to improve the living conditions of hospitalized children.

“If it is a sport synonymous with space, freedom, movement, greenery, magnificent sites, fair play,… golf undoubtedly meets this definition. All golfers share this feeling of freedom and want to transmit it to the younger generation. I once realized that sick and hospitalized children could not enjoy these pleasures. So the idea came to me to organize this event, the totality of the profits of which will be used to finance projects intended to improve the living conditions of sick children ”.
