Annual Crypto Cup

The 24th Annual Crypto Cup Golf Tournament, hosted by General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), was held on Wednesday, October 8, 2025, at the Waverly Woods Golf Course in Marriottsville, MD. The day started off with rain but switched to a beautiful sunny afternoon with some crazy winds, which made the golf that much more exciting. We had 35 teams for a total of 144 players registered, up from last year.  The day began with a Continental Breakfast (sponsored by Chesapeake Network Installations (CNI)), and check-in for players at 8:00 am with a 9:00 am shotgun start. Our wonderful volunteers arrived early to help set up, check in golfers, provide participant bags, as well as helped with all the activities throughout the day.  We had two photographers onsite as well as the Spy Hole “photo booth” to catch some great pics. Stay tuned for a link to all of these great photos. Early photos of winners are included below.
