This is the first time that Volleyball Association of Singapore (VAS) had organised a fundraising Golf Tournament. The purpose of this event is to raise funds to support the Volleyball Association of Singapore in organising more volleyball-related events and expand the volleyball arena in Singapore. It was held on 24th July 2007 at Laguna National Golf & Country Club, Classic Course with Guest-of-Honour, Dr Vivian Balakrishnan (Minister for Community Development, Youth and Sports, and Second Minister for Information, Communications and the Arts).
