Windermere, FL. ProdigyGolfer, a unique apparel line for young adults, announces a partnership with the Southern California PGA Section.
“We are proud to partner with one of the strongest PGA Sections in the USA” stated Tom Wayne, President of ProdigyGolfer. “Their strong grassroots programs for young adults and junior golfers aligns with our mission to grow this segment of the market, and the response from golfers ages 12 to 18 years old competing in the section events, has been very favorable to our distinctive ProdigyGolfer collection.”
ProdigyGolfer is sponsoring several major tournaments and events for junior and young adult golfers in Southern California throughout 2014. David Myrdahl, Foundation Director of the Southern California PGA, stated, “The SCPGA Junior Tour is excited to team up with such a new & fresh golf brand like ProdigyGolfer and we’re excited to share their brand & offerings to our junior membership.”
“In addition to our PGA Section partnership, we are excited about the opportunity to work with the leading Sales and Marketing firm in golf, The Duran Group.” Wayne continued, “The Duran Group’s specialized expertise with emerging companies, along with the widespread market reach of their sales team, will allow us to reach all markets throughout the USA and Worldwide.”
Tony Duran, Founder/President of The Duran Group, stated “we identified a changing market with young adult golfers who are looking for their own identity and look. ProdigyGolfer is 100% focused on this market, unlike other apparel brands who see this as a sideline.” Duran continued, “The brands that dad and mom have worn are no longer acceptable to this important segment of the golf industry, and we see a bright future for ProdigyGolfer as a growth leader in this niche market.”
According to Wayne, “We are seeing a validation that our products are meeting this evolving brand-aware age group at a time when their individuality and focus on their game is developing. We are excited about watching the ProdigyGolfer brand grow alongside the younger generations of golfers.”
ProdigyGolfer will be introducing a new collection at the upcoming PGA Expo in Las Vegas in Booth #431 on August 19th and 20th. Fall 2014 and Spring 2015 deliveries are available on ProdigyGolfer’s unique and distinctive line.
