The Enlightened Golfer for youth project combines life lessons from the links and the land. Learning about the virtues within the game, learning about culture, mother earth and self; connecting these aspects as a means for positive physical, mental, emotional, & spiritual development. Golf mirrors life and it is a game that does not have coaches on the sidelines. Children will develop their own inner encouraging coach through the use of golf fitness, mind/emotional mastery and gaining an indomitable spirit. They will learn to never feel alone while playing upon Mother Earth.

According to Pellucid Corp 2007 review of the Golf Industry, an estimated 75% of the golf played in the U.S. is played by golfers over the age of 43. By 2015, well over 50% of all golf will be played by golfers over 55.The same results could also be true for Canadian golfers. By encouraging kids to play golf you give them a sport that lasts a life time. More than ever, Golf is a game to balance our technological lifestlyes,by being outdoors in nature for hours. The beauty of nature feeds the soul and this is interconnected in building happy, healthy young people. Happy kids=Happy Community. Inherent in the game are life lessons and children will learn self-motivation, conflict resolution, courtesy, integrity, perseverance, honesty, discipline and fun, as well as the importance of their choices, consequences and responsibilities. Experiences that will teach the value of positive, self-directed attitudes and behaviours that result in productive use of time & energy.
