First Activation Will Revitalize Golf Program at Denver West High School
Denver, CO – GOLFTEC, the world leader in golf improvement, and SkyTrak, the #1 selling consumer launch monitor, have announced a partnership with Drive Fore The Future, a charitable foundation committed to making golf more accessible to individuals from all socioeconomic backgrounds. This partnership aims to fund underprivileged high school golf teams across the United States, enabling them to enjoy the game of golf and the valuable life skills it teaches.
As part of this commitment, GOLFTEC, SkyTrak and Drive Fore The Future will provide golf equipment, golf simulators, and other resources to underprivileged high school golf programs, helping to level the playing field and provide opportunities for young athletes to develop valuable life skills.
The first collaboration between GOLFTEC, SkyTrak and Drive Fore The Future took place this week at West High School in Denver, CO, where the organizations donated sets of golf clubs and a simulator setup from SkyTrak that includes course play from TruGolf E6 Connect. In addition, apparel will be donated to the entire boys and girls golf teams.
“We are thrilled to partner with Drive Fore The Future and to provide young athletes with greater access to play the game we all love,” said Joe Assell, CEO of GOLFTEC. “We know just how big of an impact golf can have on a young person’s life, and we’re proud to take the first step with our support of Denver West High School.”
Ryan French and Chris Gallagher are the co-founders of Drive Fore The Future. “This collaboration is truly special, as it will help to ensure that high school students from all backgrounds have the resources they need to participate in the game and experience the benefits of golf,” said French.
The support at Denver West represents the beginning of a long-term, shared commitment to expanding access to the game of golf and its benefits. Over the course of the next year, GOLFTEC and Drive Fore The Future aim to support several high school golf programs across the country.
