THE CAUSE

50% of gross event revenue supports the $100,000 Bluff City HBCU Classic

Grant Fund — providing equipment, travel, and scholarships for four HBCU

golf programs: Fisk University, Tennessee State University, LeMoyne-Owen

College, and Florida A&M University.

THE EVENING

Stay for the 19th Hole Reception and Legacy Ceremony — live music, Memphis

cuisine, and the $100,000 grant presentation to our HBCU partners.

YOUR COMMITMENT TO THE CAUSE

All registration fees are non-refundable. As a 501(c)(3) organization,

proceeds from the Bluff City HBCU Classic directly support SGA’s Fairway

Fund — funding equipment, travel, and scholarships for HBCU golf programs

at Fisk University, Tennessee State University, LeMoyne-Owen College, and

Florida A&M University. Your commitment to this event is a commitment to

that mission. Every registration puts resources directly into the hands of

student-athletes who represent the next generation of leaders in and beyond

the game. We are grateful for your investment in this community and in the

legacy we are building together.

Player substitutions within your registered foursome are welcome at any time

at no additional charge. Contact hello@socialassociation.org to update your

roster.

RAIN OR SHINE POLICY 
The Bluff City HBCU Classic is a rain or shine event. All registrations are final and non-refundable unless the event is cancelled by the Social Golf Association due to circumstances beyond our control. In that case, registrants will receive a full refund or credit toward a future SGA event.
