The first decentralized product from SuretyBlock, called Eagle1, is a Hole-in-One insurance platform for the golf industry. The decentralized solution makes it easier, quicker and more efficient for hole-in-one prizes to be obtained and issued on golf courses, and in some cases, driving ranges.
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.”
