When #DoingItForJarrod began back in 2019, professional golfers worldwide got on board to show their support. Those players had all known Jarrod and had played against and alongside him for many years. Like everyone in the Challenge community, they were deeply affected by Jarrod’s death and wanted to ensure his legacy would continue.
Jarrod Lyle was a lifelong ambassador for Challenge. With his passing, Jarrod’s gift to Challenge was his wish to raise ongoing funds to support children and families living with cancer.
To honour Jarrod, Challenge and the PGA of Australia united to create an annual nationwide fundraising campaign that is enjoyed by the entire golfing community. With their help, and yours, we can ensure Jarrod’s memory lives on.
The campaign officially runs from August through to October and the APGA event will be held in November at The Royal Queensland Golf Club. Friday, 24 November, will also be known as ‘Yellow Day’, where players, caddies, volunteers, spectators, and the broadcasting team are encouraged to wear yellow and help raise awareness for Challenge.
