COOPERSTOWN – Tennis enthusiasts will gather at the Cooperstown Country Club the day after Labor Day, on Tuesday, Sept. 2, 2014 to take part in the fifth annual Chobani Tennis Classic to benefit the Pathfinder Village Foundation’s Scholarship Endowment.

The double-flight round robin match is expected to draw 32 players from throughout the Northeast, and offers competition and camaraderie in the beautiful lakeside setting of the Cooperstown Country Club. This year, Title Sponsor Chobani is joined by two new Trophy Sponsors, Strategic Financial Services of Utica, and Manning & Napier of Fairport. The tournament is organized by a committee led by co-chairs Bob and Pat Hanft of Cooperstown.

The tournament runs concurrently with the Pro-Am portion of the Otesaga Hotel Seniors Open tournament, which is now in its 32nd year and raises an additional $50,000 in scholarship monies for Pathfinder residents. Other proceeds benefit the Education Programs of the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum, which has recently announced that 2014 Hall of Fame Inductee Bobby Cox of the Atlanta Braves will be this year’s celebrity host for the Pro-Am.
