History
The North-South tournaments was founded by Ray Mitchell to meet the needs of African American golfers after World War II, as the few segregated municipal courses and privately owned African American courses were insufficient to meet the growing demand among players. Jacksonville was the original venue, but the event moved to larger facilities at the Miami Springs Golf Course in 1955.
