February 23, 2012 – Oakbrook Terrace, IL – Excel Golf Products, Inc. and Zero Friction™ believe in “Giving Back” locally by supporting community charitable organizations as well as nationally through partnering with a variety of well-known golf organizations. Whether supporting the game of golf at the grassroots level or giving in other ways, Zero Friction™ has partnered with some of the most notable golf organizations to promote the game of golf, “give back” and build strong relationships with those who share the same mission of nurturing future performers.
Zero Friction™ is proud to announce their 2012 partnerships with the following golf organizations.
The First Tee
For the third consecutive year, Zero Friction™ is pleased to be a sponsor of The First Tee™, an organization that impacts the lives of young individuals through the game of golf. Zero Friction™ shares their mission of providing young people of all backgrounds an opportunity to develop, through golf and character education, life-enhancing values such as honesty, integrity and sportsmanship.
American Junior Golf Association (AJGA)
Zero Friction™ proudly extends its support to the American Junior Golf Association (AJGA) for a second year. AJGA is a nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf.
Golf Coaches of America (GCAA)
In 2012, Zero Friction™ has joined the Golf Coaches Association of America as a corporate partner. Through its established events and programs, the GCAA maintains a goal of increasing awareness and the status of men’s golf on a collegiate level. ” We look forward to building relations with these fine coaches by offering them products to enhance and help with their teaching efforts on the collegiate level”, said John Iacono, founder and President of Zero Friction™.
NGA Pro Tour
Zero Friction™ proudly partners once again in 2012, with the NGA Pro Tour (formerly known as the NGA Hooters Pro Golf Tour). The NGA Pro Golf Tour, established in 1988, predates the Nationwide Tour as the longest running developmental tour in golf. Zero Friction™ supports their mission of nurturing future performers by conducting professional golf events and offering the best preparation for players to develop to compete on the PGA Tour. The NGA has been instrumental in helping hundreds of professionals acquire their PGA, Euro, Senior PGA and Nationwide Tour cards.
There are No Boundaries in What We Can Achieve Together
With its introduction in 2005, Zero Friction™ brought to light the importance the tee plays in the game of golf while establishing the performance tee market. Since its debut, Zero Friction™ has remained the #1 performance tee on the PGA TOUR™ with over 70 PGA TOUR™ victories and more than 400 top-ten finishes. “It’s a credit to the performance of Zero Friction™ Tees and a shared mission of supporting future golfers that these fine organizations have elected to partner with us and continue to do so from year to year”, said Iacono. Excel and Zero Friction™ have shown a devotion to promoting the game of golf, supporting future performers and helping talent fulfill their potential with no boundaries. By joining forces with these amazing organizations, we feel that there are “No Boundaries” in what we can achieve together.
