Team Black Downs Team Red at PLYR Wildrose Showdown in Banff
14 May, 2026
BANFF, Alta.—Team Black showed its strength, battling through cool conditions for a commanding victory over Team Red in the third annual PLYR Wildrose Showdown presented by 365 Golf in the Rocky Mountains.
The Black squad celebrated a 29.5 to 15.5 victory over Team Red in the Ryder Cup format that saw 60 PGA of Canada golf professionals from throughout Alberta square off on the 6,389-yard Banff Springs Golf Course rolled out alongside the scenic Bow River at the foot of Mount Rundle. Each team, featuring a mix of 30 men and women, played best ball on the front 9 and a scramble format on the back side.
Both squads put points on the board until Team Black came storming back late in the competition, winning six of the final nine matches and tying one other to secure the trophy.
It was the third year for the Banff unofficial season kick-off event – an initiative created to provide more competitive opportunities in a fun and welcoming environment for all players.
