NewClub To Host First Annual Charity Event Alongside GSGA, Benefitting Youth on Course Georgia
MAY 8, 2023
Atlanta, Georgia— The Atlanta Chapter of NewClub Golf Society announced plans for its first annual “NewClub Charity Classic” at Rivermont Golf Club on September 19, 2023.
The event, with the support of the Georgia State Golf Association (GSGA), will raise money for Youth on Course Georgia, a charity providing equal access to the sport for youth of all socio-economic backgrounds. This day-long outing will kick off at 10:00 am, with golfers competing in a two-person best ball format. Tickets include 18 holes of golf, on-course contests, lunch, dinner, tee gifts, and access to the silent auction. With a fundraising goal of $10,000, NewClub and GSGA will also offer sponsorship opportunities through the event’s website.
“We pride ourselves in supporting local communities and creating equal opportunities within the sport of golf. We’re fortunate enough to be doing both through this event! I’ve witnessed first-hand the positive benefits of Youth on Course, and our team wants to help the cause in any way we can,” said Matt Considine, NewClub’s founder and CEO.
NewClub, one of the first real-estate-free golf clubs in America, focuses on reducing the sport’s barriers to entry through affordable memberships, community outreach, and increased accessibility. The club offers tee times to its 500+ members at public and private courses across the country.
Matt Vanderpool of GSGA commented, “We’re thrilled to be working with NewClub to support young golfers across the state of Georgia. This event will raise awareness for a cause that welcomes more kids to the sport and provides access to life-changing opportunities, both on and off the course.”
Youth on Course Georgia, an extension of GSGA, is committed to introducing young athletes to the game of golf - without concern for cost or circumstance. They offer affordable golf memberships to juniors aged 6-18, with rounds costing $5 or less. The non-profit also provides opportunities for growth through scholarships, leadership programs, and career opportunities.
