Pittsburgh Steelers legend Donnie Shell gives back to his alma mater in ways beyond serving as a member of the South Carolina State University board of directors.

The retired NFL great and 1974 SCSU alum annually sponsors the Donnie Shell Celebrity Golf Tournament to support the Donnie Shell Scholarship Foundation, which provides scholarships at S.C. State University students.

The annual tournament features some of the most decorated college and NFL players: 30 Super Bowl rings and 10 college/NFL Hall of Fame players.

According to donnieshell.com, this year's guest list includes: Barney Chavous, Dwayne Harper, Richard Shelton, John Stallworth, Jack Deloplaine, Mel Blount, Mike Wagner, Perry Tuttle, Cliff Stoudt, Yancey Thigpen, John Banaszak, Dick Conn, Jerome Bettis, Kordell Stewart, Reggie Garrett, Robin Cole, Nate Salley, Terry Kinard, Barney Bussey, Rocky Bleier, Frank Lewis and Greg Lloyd.

"Please join me and the greatest single gathering of NFL Hall of Famers, Super Bowl champions and college legends that Augusta has ever seen," says Shell in a video invitation.

The tournament will be played April 28-29 at the Champion’s Retreat Golf Course in Augusta, Ga. The private 27-hole golf club features three courses by Gary Player, Jack Nicklaus and the late Arnold Palmer and recently hosted the early-round at the inaugural Augusta National Women's Amateur tournament. 

The Celebrity Pairing Dinner kicks things off Sunday evening (April 28), when tournament participants get an opportunity to rub elbows with celebrities. The event also includes a silent auction.

The tournament is set for Monday morning, followed by an awards luncheon.

Shell and his wife Paulette are active in a variety of civic and cultural organizations, including The Mel Blount Youth, John Stallworth Scholarship Foundation and the Presidential Promise Scholarship Program at S.C. State.

Shell is a member of the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference Hall of Fame, the South Carolina Athletic Hall of Fame and the College Football Foundation Hall of Fame.

Shell was an undrafted free agent of the Pittsburgh Steelers in 1974. A member of the “Steel Curtain” defense, Shell helped lead the team to four Super Bowls and earned five trips to the Pro Bowl.

Upon his retirement, Shell was the NFL’s career leader in interceptions by a strong safety with 51. He started 11 straight years of his 14-year NFL career for the Steelers.
