If Norvell wins, the money will go to his Keep Climbing Family Foundation.
"We have another impressive field this year as some of the sport's top coaches tee it up for charity," Peach Bowl, Inc. CEO and President Gary Stokan said in a press release on Tuesday. "Many of college football's best rivalries extend to the green in this annual tradition, but it's the charities who are the real winners as we're set to raise another $300,000 this year."
Other notable coaches in the ACC who will be participating will include Manny Diaz of Duke, Dave Doeren of North Carolina State, Brent Key of Georgia Tech and Pat Narduzzi of Pittsburgh. Former coaches such as Steve Spurrier and Tommy Tuberville will also be attending.
The pairing will be announced before the tournament.
