The Victoria Bar mourns the loss of Ralston Alexander, K.C., whose contributions have left an indelible mark within the local legal community and beyond. Renowned for his exceptional legal acumen and unwavering integrity, Ralston was also known for his sparkling wit and love of golf. The VBA has named its annual golf tournament in Ralston’s honour as a tribute to his legacy of excellence, not only in the practice of law but also on the golf course, where his humour and generosity of spirit made every round a memorable, laughter-filled experience.

Tournament Format
Scramble Scoring in a Nutshell
Each team player hits from the tee box, then the team members choose the best of those shots for the next shot. All team members then play the second shot from that location and again choose the best shot. Play continues in this manner until the hole is completed. The team then records its score and maintains this format for all 18 holes.
