About

Youth on Course, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization, was established in 2006 to break down financial barriers and bring diversity to the world of golf. Our core purpose is simple yet transformative: to provide young people with access to life-changing opportunities through golf. The groundbreaking program began when a junior golfer passionate about the game, but unable to afford greens fees, walked into Poppy Hills in California and with excitement played the first round of golf underwritten by the Morton family, paying homage to their patriarch, Tom Morton.  What sets Youth on Course apart is our unwavering commitment to subsidizing rounds of golf at $5 or less for youth. Being privately funded enables us to facilitate this subsidy, resulting in millions of rounds played—an extraordinary testament to our dedication to making golf an accessible activity for the next generation. In recent years, our organization has experienced rapid growth, proudly extending membership to nearly 200,000 youth aged 6-18.  This inclusive community enjoys access to golf at more than 2,000 courses across the United States, Canada and Australia.
