2026 F.M. Law Park Shootout
Over the past five years, the F.M. Law Park Shootout has raised more than $53,000 to support the transformation of our youth golf facility into Houston’s largest outdoor classroom. Combined with the generosity of our broader community, we’ve raised more than $2.9 million toward our capital campaign goal.
Your support creates opportunities for young people like First Tee participant Samuel Herrera, whose experiences have strengthened his leadership skills and inspired a commitment to service. Together, we’re building a place where future generations can learn, grow, and thrive through golf.
Celebrating 80 Years of HGA and the Future of F.M. Law Park!
HGA celebrated a landmark day on June 25, 2026 honoring 80 years of service to the Houston community while breaking ground on the future Chevron Center for Education and Golf at F.M. Law Park.
Joined by community leaders, supporters and partners, HGA officially launched the $2.5 million facility, which will expand opportunities for thousands of young people served annually through First Tee – Greater Houston programs, school partnerships, community outreach initiatives and tournaments. Named in recognition of Chevron’s generous $1 million lead gift, the center will serve as a hub for education, mentorship and youth development.
Alum Spotlight: The Kendall Jackson Experience
FTGH Alum, Kendall Jackson, created a true full-circle moment by returning to host a clinic at F.M. Law Park this spring and poured back into the program that helped shape her own journey.
In addition to leading the clinic, she made a lasting impact by donating $1,000 through two commemorative bricks in support of our capital campaign. Her contribution will be a permanent part of our facility and a reminder of the power of giving back.
Brick sales are now open, offering our community the opportunity to leave a lasting mark and be part of what we’re building for the future. Purchase your brick for F.M. Law Park’s Donor Plaza today!
Donor Spotlight: Drs. Joe and Melba Swafford
The Swafford family has played an extraordinary role in shaping FTGH through years of mentorship, innovative programming, and a generous $50,000 Capital Campaign gift naming the Multipurpose Learning Room.
“Today, Coach Joe continues that legacy by leading ACE programming at F.M. Law Park, mentoring students in both golf and life skills while inspiring them to believe in their potential.”
Before Houston’s two First Tee chapters unified in 2014, Dr. Melba – known as Coach M – launched the LPGA*USGA Girls Golf program at F.M. Law Park. Her empowering “Winners Circle” program helped girls build confidence and was later showcased at First Tee’s National Meeting as a model for chapters nationwide.
