Tee Off Fore A Cure To Be Held March 6-7 In Point Clear

Children’s of Alabama will host its 21st annual Tee Off Fore a Cure weekend March 6–7 at Lakewood Golf Club in Point Clear. The two-day event raises funds for pediatric cancer research and care at Children’s of Alabama. This year’s theme, Cheers to 21 Years, “recognizes more than two decades of community support and impact—because at Tee Off, everybody knows your name,” according to the organization. The weekend will begin on March 6 with a pre‑party open to the public, followed by the Tee Off Fore a Cure golf tournament and signature Golf Ball Drop on March 7. The Friday night pre‑party will feature food, entertainment and a silent auction, bringing together supporters from across the Gulf Coast to kick off the weekend of fundraising and celebration. Guests will have the opportunity to bid on a variety of auction items. Saturday’s events include a four‑person scramble golf tournament with a shotgun start. The tournament also features the popular Golf Ball Drop, where numbered golf balls are dropped over a designated hole, with prizes awarded to the ball that lands in or closest to the hole. The 2026 Tee Off Fore a Cure weekend honors Frances Grace Hirs, a pediatric cancer patient whose journey helped inspire the event. With the care and support of the medical team at Children’s of Alabama, Frances Grace is now a healthy student celebrating her continued remission. Her parents, Allen and Debbie Hirs, founded Tee Off Fore a Cure in her honor to support other children facing cancer.
