Gila River Casinos set to take on primary sponsorship role for the 2025 Grass League tournament proceedings
The Grass League, a high-stakes par-3 golf league, has announced a significant expansion of its partnership with Gila River Resorts & Casinos. This partnership, which has a history of successful sponsorships within the Grass League, will continue to grow with the inclusion of the Grass League Championship and the league's season-long points race.
The Grass River Resorts & Casinos Points Race will track player standings throughout the season, providing an exciting competition for golfers and fans alike. The culmination of this race will be the Grass League Championship, set to take place December 5-6 at Grass Clippings Rolling Hills in Tempe.
The Grass League Championship is a prestigious event in the partnership expansion, and Gila River Resorts & Casinos has taken on the role of the presenting sponsor for both the championship and the season-long points race. The president of the Gila River Tribe, Buu Nygren, has also taken over sponsorship for these events in 2025.
The partnership between the Grass League and Gila River Resorts & Casinos dates back to the Grass Clippings Open, the inaugural event of the season. The final round of the 2025 Grass Clippings Open was even broadcast live on NBC Peacock, showcasing the growing relationship between the two entities.
Gila River Resorts & Casinos, associated with the Gila River Tribe, has shown a commitment to supporting the Grass League and its events. This expanded partnership is a testament to that commitment and promises an exciting future for both parties involved. While specific details about the broadcast platform for the Grass League Championship have not been provided, golf fans can look forward to tuning in for this highly anticipated event.
