Imagine a Long Drive contest hosted by the Long Drivers and for the Long Drivers. Imagine an entire soccer complex rented just for the event. Imagine a tee box big enough for four players to hit at the same time. Imagine a play in event for the non ranked players to qualify for the main event and imagine a Super Qualifier on that same grid after the Main Event. For years, players have dreamed of a long drive grid on the East Coast that is worthy and now, the search is over.

The Mesa Soccer complex is a massive venue with more than enough room for spectators, hitters and warm up swings.
