\nThis year’s field includes an impressive roster of college football greats that features six former Dodd Trophy winners, and a collective group of coaches who have won nine FBS national championships, 64 conference championships and boast 2,925 career wins.<\/p>\n

The 2026 field also features 24 coaches who have previously competed in the Southern Company Peach Bowl Challenge, while Rhett Lashlee<\/a> and Ted Roof are set to make their first-ever appearances in the event.

\nProceeds from the competition benefit charitable foundations selected by the coaches. Coach Lashlee’s winnings will go to the ED29Foundation, which was founded by NFL Hall of Famer and SMU legend Eric Dickerson. The ED29Foundation empowers underserved youth by providing resources for education, health and personal development.<\/p>\n

To date, 61 head coaches have participated in the tournament during its 19-year history, raising a total of $3.5 million for 78 different charities and foundations. Since its creation in 2007, the event has contributed a total of $10 million in scholarship and charity, helping make Peach Bowl, Inc. college football’s most charitable bowl organization.<\/p>\n

“We’ve now raised $10 million in charitable funds from this event and look forward to adding to that total thanks to this year’s impressive field of coaches,” Peach Bowl, Inc. CEO and President Gary Stokan said. “This annual tradition has grown to become the premier collegiate coach golf event and we’re thankful so many of college football’s biggest names have participated over the years in order to give back to various causes that have personal meaning to them.”
