The Charity
Since its early days, the Open’s main goal has been to support the Redkite charity whose mission is to help kids who have been diagnosed with cancer and need to leave New Caledonia to get long term treatment at the Westmead Children Hospital.
The charity coordinator and their team of volunteers provide a wide range of services to families affected by cancer including emotional and logistic support which helps make the kids’ day to day life at the hospital a bit easier.
Important information
In case of severe rain forecast, the tournament will be rescheduled as soon as possible after the current date. We understand this might not be convenient for all players but registration fees will not be reimbursed if participants can't play on these dates. Remember that all proceeds will go to Redkite!
