The 5th Annual Paladin Golf Classic marked another significant milestone for Paladin Sports Outreach, selling out with 144 golfers at Lone Tree Golf Club and raising just under $24,000 to support its mission of impacting the next generation through Christ-centered sport.

What began as a day on the golf course once again became something more—an expression of community, generosity, and a shared belief in using sport as a platform to share the love of Jesus and invest in young athletes and their families.

“We continue to be humbled by the way God provides through this event,” said Ty Schraufnagel, Paladin’s Director of Relationships and Revenue. “To see a full field of golfers come together, not just to play, but to support a mission rooted in faith and purpose, is incredibly encouraging. It’s a reminder that this work is bigger than any one of us.”

Paladin extends a special thank you to this year’s Gold Partners:

• American Family Insurance – Ty Schraufnagel Agency
• El Dorado Holdings, Inc.
• Graybar / Hubbell Wiring Device-Kellems

Their leadership and generosity played a key role in making the event possible.

Additional appreciation goes to The Fix Coffee, who helped serve players and volunteers by generously providing coffee throughout the day.

More than a successful fundraiser, the Golf Classic continues to serve as a gathering point for a growing community committed to building environments where kids are known, supported, and challenged—not just as athletes, but as young men and women created with purpose.

Through its programs, Paladin Sports Outreach seeks to combine the power of sport with the truth of the Gospel, creating opportunities for coaches and leaders to disciple the next generation both on and off the field.

We are deeply grateful to every golfer, sponsor, and supporter who made this year’s event such a success. Your partnership is helping advance a mission that extends far beyond a single day on the course.
