Golf outing set for Monday, August 23 at Essex Country Club
The Lancer Football program at the University of Windsor is pleased to announce the unveiling of the first annual Gino Fracas Memorial Golf Tournament, scheduled for this August.
Formerly known as the Touchdown Club’s Lancer Football Golf Classic, this year’s tournament is set for Monday, August 23rd at the renowned Essex Golf & Country Club in LaSalle, Ontario.
The newly renamed golf outing will be dedicated to honour the legacy of legendary Lancer Football head coach Gino Fracas, who passed away last fall.
“It is a fitting tribute that our annual Lancer Football Golf outing will now be named in Coach Fracas’ honour,” commented Head Coach Mike Morencie. “Gino meant so much to our program and to our players and alumni and this will be another opportunity for us to recognize his many contributions to Lancer Football.”
All of the proceeds generated from this golf outing go directly back to support the Lancer Football Program. The event is a great opportunity for alumni, friends and family to get together each summer for a fun day of golf and fun.
If you are interested in more information or would like to enter a foursome into this year’s tournament, please contact Lancer Football Marketing Coordinator Brian Jones at: (519) 253-3000 ext. 4275.
The tournament also offers a wide variety of partnership opportunities for those people looking to get involved and support the program. They include event sponsorships, hole sponsors, flag sponsors and raffle prize contributions.
