THE LONG GAME 2027 MASTERS EXPERIENCE DRAWING
OFFICIAL RULES
NO PURCHASE OR DONATION NECESSARY TO ENTER OR WIN. A PURCHASE OR
DONATION WILL NOT INCREASE YOUR CHANCES OF WINNING.
The Long Game 2027 Masters Experience Drawing (“Drawing”) is sponsored by The Gala of
Hope Foundation, Inc., 3500 Pentagon Boulevard, Suite 500, Beavercreek, Ohio 45431
(“Sponsor”).
By entering, each entrant agrees to these Official Rules and to the Sponsor’s decisions
concerning the Drawing, which are final and binding.
ENTRY PERIOD
The Drawing begins on September 1, 2026 at 12:01:00 AM Eastern Time and ends on
October 28, 2026 at 11:59:59 PM Eastern Time (“Entry Period”).
Sponsor’s computer system is the official timekeeping device. Entries received before or
after the Entry Period are void.ELIGIBILITY
The Drawing is open to legal residents of the 50 United States and District of Columbia who
are at least 18 years old at the time of entry.
The following individuals are not eligible:
• Employees of the Sponsor
• Individuals directly involved in administering the Drawing or selecting the winner
• Immediate family members of an ineligible individual
• Individuals who live in the same household as an ineligible individual, whether
related or not
“Immediate family” means a spouse, parent, child, sibling and the spouse of any such
person, regardless of where they reside.
The Drawing is void where prohibited or restricted by law.HOW TO ENTER
There are two methods of entry. Each valid method provides one entry with equal odds of
winning.
A. Fundraising Qualification Method
A registered Long Game golfer will receive one entry if the golfer raises at least $2,500 in
eligible fundraising credit during the Entry Period.
To qualify:
• All completed holes must be recorded by October 28, 2026 at 11:59:59 PM Eastern
Time.
• The golfer’s eligible fundraising total must equal or exceed $2,500 by that deadline.
• The golfer must otherwise comply with these Official Rules.
Eligible fundraising credit may include:
• Valid one-time donations credited to the golfer
• Valid per-hole pledges calculated using the number of holes recorded before the
deadline
• Eligible offline gifts received, verified and credited by the Sponsor before the
deadline
• Grants from donor-advised funds recommended by unrelated third-party donors,
provided the grant is received and credited before the deadline
A grant or contribution from a donor-advised fund or similar charitable account over which
the golfer, a member of the golfer’s immediate family or a member of the golfer’s household
holds advisory privileges will not count toward the $2,500 threshold.
Canceled, refunded, disputed, fraudulent, uncollectible or otherwise invalid donations or
pledges will not count. Sponsor will determine fundraising totals using its official
campaign, financial and payment-processing records.
Raising more than $2,500 does not provide additional entries or increase an entrant’s
chances of winning.
B. Free Alternate Method of Entry
To enter without registering as a golfer, playing golf, fundraising, making a donation or
completing any other transaction, visit: https://form.jotform.com/262366487769073
Complete and submit the free-entry form during the Entry Period. The form requires the
entrant’s full legal name, email address, telephone number, mailing address, state of
residence, eligibility certifications and acknowledgment of these Official Rules.
The completed form must be submitted by October 28, 2026 at 11:59:59 PM Eastern Time.
No purchase, donation, fundraising activity, golf participation or payment is required to use
the free method of entry.ENTRY LIMIT
Limit one entry per person during the entire Entry Period, regardless of entry method.
A person who qualifies through fundraising and also submits a free-entry form will receive
only one entry.
Entrants may not use multiple names, email addresses, identities, accounts or other
means to obtain more than one entry. Automated, mechanically reproduced, fraudulent,
incomplete or illegible entries are void.
Multiple eligible individuals residing in the same household may each enter separately,
subject to the one-entry-per-person limit.ENTRY VERIFICATION
All entries are subject to verification by the Sponsor.
Proof of submitting a form, donation or pledge does not constitute proof that the Sponsor
received a valid entry. Sponsor may request information reasonably necessary to verify an
entrant’s identity, age, residence, fundraising total or compliance with these Official Rules.
If a donation or pledge used to establish fundraising eligibility is canceled, reversed,
disputed, refunded, uncollectible or otherwise determined to be invalid, the Sponsor may
disqualify the related entry or potential winner.RANDOM DRAWING AND ODDS
On or about October 29, 2026, the Sponsor or an independent person designated by the
Sponsor will randomly select one potential winner from all eligible entries received through
both entry methods.
The odds of winning depend on the total number of eligible entries received.
Every valid entry has an equal chance of selection, regardless of entry method or the
amount raised or donated.WINNER NOTIFICATION AND VERIFICATION
The potential winner will be contacted using the email address and telephone number
associated with the entry.
The potential winner must respond within 24 hours after the Sponsor’s first notification
attempt and indicate whether the potential winner accepts the prize.

• Confirm eligibility
• Complete an affidavit of eligibility
• Sign a liability and publicity release where legally permitted
• Submit a completed IRS Form W-9
• Provide documentation required by the prize provider
• Comply with all terms governing the tournament badges, lodging and prize package
If the potential winner does not respond within 24 hours, cannot be contacted, is ineligible,
declines the prize, does not complete the required documentation or violates these Official
Rules, the potential winner will be disqualified. Sponsor may then randomly select an
alternate potential winner from the remaining eligible entries.
If verification is completed before the 19th Hole Closing Celebration, Sponsor may
announce the verified winner at the event. Otherwise, Sponsor may announce that a
potential winner has been selected, subject to acceptance and eligibility verification.
