Peachtree Corners, GA — U.S. Kids Golf, the global leader in kids golf development and equipment, today announced a new partnership with Golfers World (and its subsidiaries Duchell BV and Piguy Golf Challenge), one of Europe’s premier golf distributors. Beginning in early 2026, Golfers World will represent and distribute U.S. Kids Golf products throughout Western Europe and Scandinavian markets, significantly expanding access to world-class junior golf equipment and programming across the region.
Under this agreement, Golfers World will manage sales, distribution, and retail partnerships for the full range of U.S. Kids Golf products, including the award-winning Yard Club, Ultralight and Tour Series clubs, training tools, accessories, and player development resources. The collaboration reinforces U.S. Kids Golf’s mission to support young players and families entering the game by ensuring easier, more reliable access to properly fitted and weighted golf equipment.
“U.S. Kids Golf is committed to building a global foundation for the lifelong game of golf, and Europe is an essential region for growing kids and family golf participation,” said Dan Van Horn, President and Founder of U.S. Kids Golf. “We are excited to partner with Golfersworld through Duchell and Piguy Golf Challenge, whose reputation, reach, and long-standing industry expertise throughout Europe align so well with our mission to serve kids, parents, and coaches with the best opportunities to learn and develop in the game.”
Golfers World has earned decades of recognition for delivering premium golf brands and superior service to facilities and retailers across Europe. The company’s established network and deep knowledge of regional market needs make it a natural partner for expanding U.S. Kids Golf’s international footprint.
“We are thrilled to be representing U.S. Kids Golf in these key European markets,” said Nicolas Boureau, International Commercial Director “Their dedication to junior golf development aligns perfectly with our vision for growing the game. We look forward to supporting golf clubs, retailers, and families in helping the next generation of golfers thrive.”
The new distribution framework will begin rolling out in early 2026, with product availability slated to expand steadily throughout the year.
