The Cocoa High School Booster Club will hold its annual golf tournament on Saturday, May 16, at Rockledge Country Club. The event starts at 8:30 a.m. with a shotgun start and will take place at 1591 South Fiske Boulevard in Rockledge. Registration begins at 7 a.m., with a complimentary breakfast available for participants. The tournament is a four-person scramble format, and entry fees are $90 per individual or $360 for a full team.
The Rockledge Country Club has hosted the event for several years, drawing local golfers and community members. The club’s 18-hole course is a popular venue for tournaments, and organizers say the layout provides a fair challenge for players of all skill levels. The event includes a shared golf cart, drink tickets, a goody bag with tournament swag, and meals during the day.
Participants can expect a structured schedule: check-in starts at 7 a.m., followed by breakfast and networking until the tournament begins at 8:30 a.m. The course is expected to be open until around 2 p.m., with a post-tournament lunch provided. The Booster Club uses the event to fundraise for student programs and athletic opportunities at Cocoa High School.
The tournament has become a staple in the local calendar, with many returning players and teams. The club’s president, John Martinez, said the event helps build community ties and supports student initiatives. 'This is more than a golf tournament,' Martinez said. 'It’s about bringing people together and investing in our students.' The final round of play is expected to conclude by early afternoon, with awards presented on-site.
