Each edition of the event ends with a national final. In 2021, it will take place on October 16 and 17 at the Golf d'Orléans-Limère (Loiret) in the presence of the association's national sponsor, skipper Maxime Sorel.

“This magnificent course, classified among the most beautiful golf courses in France, winds its way through the Sologne forest and allows a very varied game, alternating between bodies of water, well-defended greens and a few beautiful bunkers. A real gem. Located on the Domaine des Portes de Sologne, with a hotel and balneotherapy center, the Golf de Limère is the ideal destination for a weekend getaway or a few days, just 1 hour 15 minutes from Paris. "

The Green of Hope: an unmissable event for golf enthusiasts

More than 90 competitions are held in France each year with the support of the French Golf Federation and the Ministry of Sports. The competition is open to all golfers, whatever their level, from March to October.

In addition to access to the course, each golfer pays a registration fee which is entirely donated by the organizing golf club to Vaincre la Mucoviscidose, and can make an additional donation.

Beyond being a major fundraising event for the association, the Green of Hope is a moment of awareness of the cause and the disease through sports and solidarity demonstrations. Since the creation of this event, the association has raised more than 4 million euros.
