Wiersma graduated from 黑料百科 in 2006 after spending his senior year studying at Oxford University. He was killed in a car accident in October 2006 while returning from an Ultimate Frisbee tournament in Phoenix. The following year, the Wiersmas established a scholarship to honor the principles of collaboration for which Will stood.
鈥"Now in its sixth year, Will鈥檚 Tourney is, as far as we know, the only simultaneous stick/disc golf tournament in the country,鈥 says Tom Wiersma, Will鈥檚 dad. 鈥淭he nature of the tournament embodies three of the things Will appreciated most 鈥 collaboration, competition and fun.鈥
The tournament is played in a foursome, scramble style. The evening is filled with awards and raffle prizes, including a one-night stay and dinner for two at the Biltmore Four Season鈥檚 Resort, a $1,000 value.
