Growing the game.
Changing lives.

Become a Sponsor
Every kid deserves a shot at the game.
Golf teaches patience, honesty, and resilience. But the cost of clubs, coaching, and competition keeps too many young players off the course. We remove those barriers.
With our donors and tournament sponsors, we fund equipment, lessons, junior tour entry fees, and travel for promising golfers who couldn't otherwise afford to compete.
Our goals for year one, starting with our launch in November
- Raised for junior golf
- $1M
- Juniors fully sponsored
- 50
- Club sets in young hands
- 250
- Tournament rounds funded
- 500
Three ways we grow the game
Each program funds a different barrier, from the first set of clubs to a seat at a junior tour event.

Junior Sponsorships
Full-season backing for talented juniors: tour entry fees, coaching, travel stipends, and mentorship from PGA professionals in our network.

Equipment & Access
New and refurbished club sets, range passes, and greens-fee grants so cost is never the reason a kid stops playing.

How we develop the next generation
Every junior follows a funded pathway, from their first swing to the biggest stage their talent can reach.
-
First Swing
Starter clubs, range passes, and open clinics. No cost to the family and no experience required.
-
Real Coaching
Ongoing instruction from PGA professionals: fundamentals, course management, and the discipline the game teaches.
-
Competition
Junior tour entry fees, tournament travel, and mentorship inside the ropes.
-
College & Beyond
Showcase events, recruiting guidance, and scholarship support on the way to a college roster.
Earn it on the course
Every junior in our program gets a Progress Passport. Coaches sign off each milestone as it happens, and every one unlocks something real, so kids can see how far they've come and know a whole community is behind them.
On the course
-
First clinic
A starter glove, a sleeve of balls, and their own Progress Passport.
-
First full 9 holes
Their scorecard, signed by their coach and framed to take home.
-
First birdie
A Birdie Club pin and a shout-out from the foundation.
-
Breaking 100, 90, then 80
A personalized headcover, then a custom club fitting, then a season of junior tour entry fees.
In competition
-
First tournament
A tournament kit: a polo with their name, a yardage book, and a ball marker.
-
First top-10 finish
Recognition at our next foundation event, in front of the people who made it possible.

Travel and entry for that event, covered.

Off the course

Volunteering at our events
A service award and a spot on the junior mentor team.
-
Mentoring a new junior
A leadership patch and a place in the Junior Showcase Pro-Am.
-
A full year in the program
An awards night with their family, celebrating everything they earned.
Every milestone is funded by a donor.
Give once or monthly, and you're the reason a kid gets to celebrate. Junior achievements are only shared publicly with a parent's permission.
Your gift tees up a future.
Choose a one-time gift or become a monthly supporter. Your gift is added to the live total at the bottom of your screen.
Know the game? You can also give your time as a coach.
Get involved
Get your junior on the course.
If cost is standing between your kid and the game, that's what we exist to fix. Sponsorships cover Harry Taylor University memberships, equipment, coaching, tournament entry fees, and travel.
- Open to juniors ages 4 to 18
- No experience required
- Based on financial need, commitment, and love of the game
- A 30-second video of their swing or their story helps
Applications are reviewed on a rolling basis. Our first class of sponsored juniors will be selected after our November launch.
Donate your time, not your wallet.
An hour on the range with a real coach can change a junior's game, and their confidence, faster than any check. Run clinics, give lessons, and mentor our sponsored juniors.
- Run open clinics for first-time players
- Give lessons to sponsored juniors
- Mentor at tournaments: routines, course management, composure
PGA professionals, instructors, college players, and experienced amateurs are all welcome. Every volunteer coach is vetted before working with juniors.
