Get Ready: Grasslands Golf & Country Club
March 17th, 2025

Opened in 1990, the course was designed by Jerry Pate & Bob Cupp and restored in 2008 by the Jerry Pate Design Group. The greens were converted to "Champion" ultra-dwarf Bermuda grass, the tee boxes were rebuilt, and the entire course underwent irrigation, drainage, bunkerwork and beautification changes.

While members enjoy many traditional events, the Club also has a history of hosting professional tournaments. Currently a host site for PGA Tour's Web.com Qualifying, stage one, Grasslands was also the site of the former Nike, now Web.Com Tour, event the "Lakeland Classic" and the NFPGA Tour & Club Professional Invitational. Our distinguished golfing members include two Champions Tour and one LPGA Tour player. Golf Digest Magazine has rated Grasslands as one of the top clubs in the nation with the "Best Players". click here.

REDEFINING WHAT IT MEANS TO GIVE BACK

PLAYERS

Our Cause

Seven years ago, Excel Christian Academy established seven core values for its culture of education: honor, generosity, excellence, growth, diversity, creativity, and gratitude. Today, Excel Academy is a thriving K-12th grade student body and is gaining national recognition as a model school for achieving its mission of “Pursuing Excellence with Honor.”

A robust, well-rounded curriculum with talented and engaging teachers and an energetic and diverse peer group provides students endless opportunities to discover their passions and talents. Developing sports programs to include basketball, volleyball, soccer, flag football, baseball, and cheerleading have given students an outlet to compete. Fine arts programming to include music, visual arts, dance and musical theater allow students to develop performance skills sets that help them communicate and build confidence.
