to grow in the game
MONTEREY, Calif. — Youth on Course, the nonprofit organization dedicated to providing youth with access to life-changing opportunities through golf, names Tisha Alyn as a global ambassador. A distinguished golf media personality, former professional golfer, and Youth on Course Alumna, Alyn, is committed to empowering young women and advocating for inclusivity within the sport.
With her certification as a youth instructor and a proven ability to motivate players of all levels, Alyn is well-equipped to lead initiatives that expand opportunities for the organization’s members. Her journey into the sport was catalyzed by her family's relocation to Murrieta, California, where she became a member of Youth on Course. This pivotal experience played a crucial role in her development, propelling her from high school to collegiate golf at California State University, Fullerton and ultimately into the professional realm.
“Youth on Course changed everything for me. It allowed me to practice much more than I otherwise would have been able to, thanks to the access to affordable rounds,” said Alyn. “As a proud alumna, I am thrilled to join forces with the organization in its mission to democratize access to golf and inspire the next generation.”
After discovering her love for golf at age three, Alyn achieved her goal of playing golf at the professional level and has since channeled her drive for success on the green into cultivating a social presence to showcase her talent. Leveraging her platform for positive change, Alyn is committed to amplifying the voices of young women in the sport and fostering a more inclusive and diverse golf community.
Alyn joins Jennifer Kupcho, Lizette Salas, Roger Steele, Condoleeza Rice and Harold Varner III as Youth on Course’s sixth global ambassador. Together, they champion the organization's core purpose of providing young people with access to transformative opportunities through golf.
“Tisha embodies the values and spirit of Youth on Course, and we are delighted to welcome her as our newest ambassador," states Adam Heieck, CEO of Youth on Course. “Her dedication to the game and passion for youth empowerment will undoubtedly inspire countless individuals to pursue their dreams within the world of golf."
Founded in 2006, Youth on Course now has nearly 200,000 members with access to play golf for $5 or less at more than 2,000 courses throughout the United States, Canada, and Australia. The recent achievement of three million rounds played by its members underscores the organization's remarkable growth and positive impact on the golf community.
Beyond affordable access, Youth on Course launched an Alumni Network earlier this year, connecting over 75,000 young adults nationwide who share a connection with the game of golf. For $20 per year, Alumni can access exclusive benefits and opportunities valued at over $500 through the Youth on Course mobile app, including complimentary subscriptions to NBC Sports Next's GolfPass and Peacock streaming, discounts on renowned golf brands like TaylorMade Golf and LinkSoul and exclusive app access to ParPoints.
