⛳ GYA Course Partner Program
Become a GYA Course Partner
Golf Your Age℠ is an annual SphereUs Foundation charitable golf challenge played at courses across the country. Partner courses are recognized on the GYA map and help connect local players to a national community giving effort.
What is Golf Your Age℠?
GYA participants register to play a number of holes equal to their age — within a 72-hour window — and raise sponsor pledges. 100% of all registration donations and pledges go to the SphereUs Foundation, which funds community care grants distributed to local neighbors in need in the golfer's county. Any golfer, any age, any course. There is no cost to play at a partner course beyond normal green fees.
