Golf is becoming more diverse, but we believe the sport can evolve more rapidly by empowering young people to drive that change, which is why we need you.
The DRIVE Club was created to identify, foster and support a growing community of diverse young golfers on their golf journeys.
DRIVE Club empowers its members to introduce their peers to the sport by guiding them on their first rounds of golf. Using a green to tee approach, new golfers can actually play golf from the start and enjoy all of the things avid golfers love: being outdoors, socializing, developing new skills, and building relationships.
For many young people, the barrier that keeps them from giving golf a try is not having a knowledgeable friend or family member to introduce them to the game and mentor them along the way. Junior golfers are the most diverse demographic within the sport so there’s no one better equipped to introduce more youth of color to golf.
How it works...
DRIVE Club members receive an orientation from Youth on Course and Team TaylorMade
You will lead beginners during their first rounds of golf and get them on the course walking, talking, and enjoying the aspects of the game anyone can enjoy
The new golfers you invite will be eligible for a trial YOC membership good for 5 complimentary rounds of golf with you
You’ll spread the word to friends and family and encourage them to sign up for Youth on Course to lean and fall in love with the game
What you'll receive...
Special swag from TaylorMade Golf upon acceptance
Complimentary rounds of golf when serving as an on-course guide for new golfers
Community service hours
Mentorship and support from golf industry professionals to help you stay on a path to success on and off the course
The opportunity to earn special equipment, apparel, and other items
And more!
