American Football Coaches Foundation Announces 6th Annual Randy Walker Power of Influence Golf Outing
LAKE FOREST, ILLINOIS – The American Football Coaches Foundation’s Randy Walker Power of Influence Golf Outing will be held on Monday, June 27, 2011, at The Ivanhoe Club in Ivanhoe, Illinois.
The golf outing was renamed the Randy Walker Power of Influence Golf Outing to honor the memory of the Northwestern Head Football Coach who was involved in the establishment of this event, but died suddenly just weeks prior to the inaugural golf outing.
The three previous golf outings have raised over $600,000 for the AFCF. An Auction and a dinner reception are planned to follow the golf outing. The auction will feature sports memorabilia, tickets to events and football games, and many other unique items.
Many other coaches and notables have participated in this event. They include, Grant Teaff (Executive Director, AFCA); Pat Fitzgerald (Northwestern); Rich Rodriguez; Jim Tressel (Ohio State); Bret Bielema (Wisconsin); Ron Zook (Illinois); Brian Kelly (University of Notre Dame); Turner Gill (Kansas); Tyrone Willingham; Shawn Slocum (Green Bay Packers); Mark Murphy (President, Green Bay Packers); Ted Hendricks (NFL Hall of Fame Class of 1990); R.C.
