Eagle1 is slated for launch in late Q2 2022. The decentralized solution has been designed to support golf associations, golf courses, and tournament organizers with unique and custom hole-in-one prize-pools and payouts.

“I am excited to work with this team on a project that is exciting for both golfers and golf courses. Today we can offer contests that will attract people to the game, and benefit golf courses everywhere,” said McWha.

McWha is a former President of the Manitoba PGA (1977-78), a former President of the PGA of Canada (1983 84), and a board member of the PGA of BC (1993-95). In 2015 he was inducted into the Manitoba Golf Hall of Fame.

“We are excited to bring on Mr. McWha as a key advisor and partner that will help guide us in our latest decentralized financial product, SuretyBlock,” said Kevin Day, CTO at OFB and the head of SuretyBlock. “Mr. McWha brings a sharp business acumen and extensive experience in the Canadian golfing industry that will help guide us to our goals for Eagle1, and more.”

SuretyBlock aims to provide trade associations, organizations, and event organizers the option to insure themselves against various liabilities using the power of blockchain technology to pool and distribute funds.
