The Louisiana Pelican Classic was an annual golf tournament for professional women golfers on the Futures Tour, the LPGA's developmental tour. The event was a part of the Futures Tour's schedule from 2006 to 2009. It took place at The Wetlands Golf Course in Lafayette, Louisiana.
The tournament was a 54-hole event, as are most Futures Tour tournaments, and includes pre-tournament pro-am opportunities, in which local amateur golfers can play with the professional golfers from the Tour as a benefit for local charities. The benefiting charity from the Louisiana Pelican Classic is Goodwill Industries of Acadiana.
