FootGolf
2024-09-21 12:00 - 16:00 | Francis Park, Childress & Nottingham
Are you ready for a great Saturday event that provides family fun at Francis?
The Elevens is a FootGolf tournament to be conducted throughout the natural landscape of Francis Park. This event will offer participants a terrific way to enjoy golf while combining the skill of soccer for a unique and fun option to ‘hit the links’. Participants can enjoy all the great amenities of Francis Park while competing with fellow neighbors, friends, and families in a great game of skill. The tournament itself follows the same basic rules of a standard golf tournament, complete with scoring, penalties, hazards, and strategy.
The Elevens, part of the Friends of Francis Park organization, is excited to deliver a fantastic event in proximity to where participants live and visit, without the inflated cost/set-up and lengthy play times of regular golf. For a donation, the participants receive a fun-filled activity in a beautiful neighborhood park, complete with refreshing libations and all for a great cause!
The Elevens is a fantastic way to build camaraderie in our community with the option for friends and families to join for a round or for the entire day. With this event, we can utilize the inner park while raising funds, all culminating in a great community outdoor reception – complete with music, food & drink, and hole sponsors.
The event will conclude with the top scoring golfers returning for a 3-hole playoff, conducted in front of a large gallery where we will crown our next Elevens FootGolf champion!
If you are interested in becoming a hole sponsor, please contact Jim Robben directly at jim.robben@wwt.com
All proceeds will benefit the Friends of Francis Park in keeping the jewel of St Louis Hills, the gem that it is.
An afternoon with golf played with a soccer ball throughout the jewel of 63109 – now that’s a hole in one!
