- Velie_Memorial_Cup abstract "The Velie Memorial Cup, more commonly known as the Velie Cup, is an annual golf tournament held among several country clubs in the Quad-Cities area of Illinois and Iowa. The tournament derives its name from a silver loving cup offered to the Rock Island Arsenal Golf Club by members of the Velie family in memoriam to Willard L. Velie and son Willard L. Velie, Jr. The senior Velie was founder and president of the Velie Motor Corporation and Willard Jr. was an executive. Both were members of the Arsenal Club; Willard Jr. was an accomplished golfer winning several amateur golf titles. Willard Sr. died in 1928 and Williard Jr. in March 1929 at the age of 32.The Velie Cup was to be awarded to the winner of a summer-long golf tournament featuring four private clubs of the tri-cities (as it was known then) in team competition. In a 7 June 1929 newspaper article, the Davenport Democrat and Leader commented that: “In serving as a memorial, the cup will incidentally be a stimulus to tri-city inter-club competition. Thus it will make for a more completely rounded season schedule of golf activities, heightening the interest and bringing the several clubs of the community into closer relationships.”".
