Golf, Leadership and Life Skills

WIGF youth programming is designed with the primary goal of developing leaders. The programs use golf as a focal point to teach critical leadership, competitive and social skills that are required for youth development.

The programs focus on girls but will accept boys if space is available. The youth programs are made available to any youth applying and approved where ever they live.

Over the 20+ years of the program’s existence, students have participated from Georgia, Florida, Texas, Michigan, Mississippi and Oklahoma. We advertise throughout Georgia in schools, recreation centers, churches and communities with a focus on metro Atlanta. Currently the youth that participate live in North and South Fulton, North and South Dekalb, Clayton, Fayette, Gwinnett, Douglas, Newnan and Henry counties.
