The Foundation was formed as a 501-C-3 organization in 2004 to benefit junior golfers, High School programs and help provide affordable golf for junior golfers mainly in Northern California. 

​

The original premise “Adopt-A-Tee time” was designed to provide affordable golf. It was soon taken to the NCGA (Northern California Golf Association) and is now known as Youth on Course which has spread to virtually every State and Canada. 
 

The Foundation has continued to operate providing funds to programs that get passed over by the larger dollars. In 2022 a new initiative was introduced to provide new golf bags to juniors who could use an upgrade as it is our feeling that pride of ownership will help a young player gain confidence on the golf course.
 

We like to say, “Let the kids play, every one of them...”
