Tee Up for a Cause: 7th Annual Yellow Jacket Classic Returns to Tega Cay Golf Club

The Fort Mill High School golf program is gearing up for its biggest fundraiser of the year — the 7th Annual Yellow Jacket Classic — set for Thursday, May 8, 2025, at the beautiful Tega Cay Golf Club. With a 9:00 a.m. shotgun start, this lively four-person Captain’s Choice tournament promises a full day of fun, prizes, and purpose.

Open to golfers of all skill levels, the Yellow Jacket Classic is more than just a competition. It’s a vital event that supports both the boys’ and girls’ golf teams, helping fund travel to tournaments and purchase essential equipment throughout the season. Registration is $500 per team (or $125 per player), which includes green fees, cart fees, range balls, lunch, and non-alcoholic drinks. Participants will also have the chance to win prizes for top teams, closest to the pin, longest drive, and longest putt — and enjoy a raffle and silent auction.

But the event isn’t just for players. Community members and businesses can get involved through several sponsorship tiers — from a $100 Bronze Sponsorship to the $5,000 Tournament Title Sponsorship, which includes multiple signs, two teams, top billing on scoreboards, and logo placement on official t-shirts and social media. Donations for swag bags, the silent auction, or raffle prizes are also welcome and greatly appreciated.

Deadline for shirt size guarantees is April 1, so early sign-ups are encouraged!

Whether you’re swinging a club or showing support from the sidelines, the Yellow Jacket Classic is a chance to rally around Fort Mill’s student-athletes and help them thrive on and off the green.
