OUR WORK · YOUTH & COMMUNITY GOLF

Putting clubs in kids' hands.

The Asheville Golf Course honored with a ‘Top 10 Youth On Course Award’ for facilities for North & South Carolina.

Golf should not be out of reach for a kid in Asheville. Since 2023, FOAM has bought junior golf equipment to lend to First Tee WNC participants and to any young player who needs a set to practice or play at Muni. The gear has been funded by grants from partners like the Walnut Cove Members Association and the HV3 Foundation, which supports affordable access and mentorship.

Muni is where Western North Carolina learns the game. It hosts First Tee of WNC and PGA Jr. League, and it opens the course to school teams, with free programming for six area high schools and four middle school teams. More than 40,000 rounds are played here each year, at prices that keep the game within reach.
