According to a post on its athletics website, the Harvey golf program landed a grant from the Northern Ohio PGA’s Clubs Fore Kids grant.
Through the grant, the Red Raiders received new golf equipment and instruction from PGA Pro Tim Ausperk during a presentation at Black Brook Golf Course on Tuesday.
“This prestigious grant provides young athletes with brand-new golf equipment, professional instruction, and affordable access to local courses—all at no cost to the student-athletes or the school,” according to the post. “The program’s mission is to introduce more youth to the game of golf, with a special focus on character development, personal growth, and building a stronger, more inclusive golf community.”
The grant provides the Red Raiders with:
- A brand-new set of golf clubs for the program, which students can also use during the summer months
- Golf balls, tees, and headcovers
- PGA Professional instruction sessions
- A Youth on Course membership that allows juniors to play rounds at participating public courses for $5 or less
- Eligibility for financial assistance to compete in Northern Ohio Junior Golf summer events
- A practice manual filled with tips and drills curated by Northern Ohio PGA Professionals
ABOUT CLUBS FORE KIDS
The Clubs Fore Kids program aims to serve young golfers ages 8–18, especially those from schools or families with limited access to golf equipment and training. According to the Northern Ohio PGA, nearly half of girls’ and more than half of boys’ high school golf teams in the region have players who must borrow or share equipment—an issue this initiative is designed to address.
