SUMMARY:2026 Lou Frey Memorial Golf Tournament
DESCRIPTION:TO REGISTER AS A SPONSOR PLEASE GO TO THE “GET TICKETS” BUTTON ON THE RIGHT\n\n\nNCS partners with the Lou Frey Institute of Politics and Government at UCF to conduct it’s annual fundraising Golf Tournament to benefit NCS scholarships / STEM initiatives and civics education for the state of Florida. Proceeds from the golf tournament support scholarships for students at the high school and college level. \nIn addition\, funds raised at this event support STEM Initiatives that benefit both middle and high school programs throughout Central Florida. \nYour support is critical to addressing the STEM challenge and helping the United States remain a world leader in STEM education by encouraging more students to join the STEM ranks. According to the U.S. Government\, STEM occupations are outpacing STEM graduates\, which requires an “all hands on deck challenge” to increase the number of STEM students. As such\, the National Center for Simulation has proven that we have access to a unique set of capabilities to assist in addressing the STEM challenge by leveraging the proceeds of this tournament to promote and lead STEM initiatives for the Modeling\, Simulation & Training (MS&T) community by bringing our resources\, expertise\, and services of NCS and its members to strengthen the pipeline for the future workforce. \nDOWNLOAD / VIEW THE 2026 LOU FREY MEMORIAL GOLF TOURNAMENT FLYER
