How did we get here?

It began in 2008, when Dusty and Dave phoned Jonathan—better known as “Balls”—to ask if they could use his family’s home in Palm Desert for a golf weekend. Not wanting to miss out, Balls joined the small gathering. None of us imagined that one casual trip would grow into the annual OCI Tournament, now drawing more than 90 participants. Above all, our passion is bringing people together through the game of golf.

At The Invitational Group, we make planning a golf tournament easy—and fun. Our team handles every detail, from scheduling and logistics to prizes and entertainment, so you can focus on what matters most: enjoying the course with colleagues, clients, and friends. We’re passionate about bringing people together through golf and creating events that forge lasting connections and unforgettable memories.
