Welcome to the 8th Annual Florida League Celebrity Golf Tournament. This event is the Florida League's signature fundraiser as well as one of the most prestigious golf outings offered in Central Florida.
The Florida League is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. The league exists to provide a place for college baseball players to hone their skills during the summer against elite competition in a family-friendly community oriented environment. Many of our players live with host families over the two month season and hope to gain exposure to professional scouts. After 12 seasons there have been 323 players drafted out of our league, 15 of whom made it to major league baseball.
In addition, Florida League games offer a festive, family friendly and community atmosphere for six cities in Central Florida. Fans enjoy competitive baseball, fun on-field activities and great ballpark food at each home game. Each team actively engages fans, local businesses and other non-profit groups who can raise funds for their organization by selling tickets to Florida League games.
Each year it takes more than $700,000 to operate a 6 team league. As such, it is necessary to have fundraising events outside of the summer season to sustain operations. This golf tournament will help us raise approximately 15% of the funding needed to operate the league.
We hope you enjoy this unique event that offers unparalleled access to some of the biggest names in baseball both past and present.
