FCA Heart & Soul Golf Tournament Awards will include prizes for their First, Second, Third and Last Place “Highest Score” Foursome Winners. There will be awards shared for Men’s and Women’s Longest Drives, the Closest to the Pin Award as well as the Putting Contest.
FCA Golf Tournament organizer and Regional Director for Field Ministry Mindy Lee Hopman shares, “The FCA Heart and Soul Golf Tournament provides an opportunity for our participants, volunteers, and sponsors to learn more about the Fellowship of Christian Athletes — including FCA Huddles, our school connections across South Lake County and the Florida Region. It helps us communicate how FCA shares the Gospel, what discipleship looks like through FCA, and the various types of huddles for coaches and athletes beyond the campus such as [THE] Huddle: for women. Mark your calendars and register now for the upcoming FCA Golf Tournament, scheduled for Friday, October 2, 2026.”
