(Lakewood, WA: February 19, 2015) – PlayKleen LLC, maker of the world’s finest microfiber waffle technology golf towels, is proud to announce their commitment to grow the game of golf by partnering with Nextgengolf. Nextgen is a Boston based company that is changing the way college students and young professionals experience golf. They have created collegiate club golf teams who are networked throughout the US. Nextgengolf will run over 120+ college golf tournaments and provide access to affordable golf and equipment to 20,000+ students. “We saw a huge void for the younger generation and an opportunity to make things better”, said Kris Hart, CEO of Nextgengolf. “For a long time the golf has ignored the young professional demographic. We want to assist young adults with the opportunity to experience this great game, the values, and camaraderie that comes along with it”, stated, Kris.
Beyond college tournaments, Nextgengolf will run 48 events in 12 cities across the country for any 18-34 year old golfer. At the end of every season, NextGen hosts a National Championship where players come from all over the Nation to compete. PlayKleen will be the official towel of the NextGengolf and will help partner in their efforts to grow the game among this demographic. “Being able to be involved in something like this is very special for us. This age group is the future of golf and the sooner they can engage this sport the better the game will be… we’re just happy to play role in their process”, stated Travis Teeple, CEO of PlayKleen.
