On August 6, 2022, the James Francis Foundation hosted the James Francis & Friends All-Star Celebrity Golf Classic presented by H-E-B at Southwyck Golf Club in Pearland, TX. This exciting event brought together legendary athletes, including Santana Dotson, Andre Ware, Lamar Lathon, and Barry Foster, for a day of golf, camaraderie, and giving back.

Believe in yourself and all that you are. Know that there is something inside you that is greater than any obstacle.”

The day kicked off with a Shotgun Start at 8:00 AM, followed by the Pigskin Breakfast, generously sponsored by Strategic Investments Management. After an action-packed day on the course, participants gathered for the Pick 6 Awards Luncheon, proudly hosted by UPS. Proceeds from the event helped fund the James Francis Foundation’s youth programs, housing assistance, education initiatives, and community support efforts—making a lasting impact in the community.

Set against the backdrop of Southwyck Golf Club, a beautiful links-style course winding through the Silverlake subdivision, this tournament offered a true test of skill and strategy. With challenging holes playing into and against the wind, golfers enjoyed a fun and competitive experience while supporting a meaningful cause.

This event was more than just a game—it was a day of friendship, generosity, and making a difference. Whether as a participant or a sponsor, everyone played a vital role in supporting the James Francis Foundation’s mission. Don’t miss out on the next opportunity to golf for a great cause!
