FUNDRAISING FOR OUR 2026 SCHOLARSHIP RECIPIANTS ENDS IN...

Talent, dedication, and passion—not family finances—should determine a young golfer's potential for success.

Breakthrough Golf Alliance provides financial support, mentorship, and opportunities to talented junior golfers aged 13 and above who have demonstrated exceptional promise but face the significant financial burden of competing at elite levels.

The 2026 campaign launched in January with the successful Alliance Cup Charity Scramble presented by Taino Golf at Wekiva Golf Club. Throughout the year, we're working to offset the extraordinarily high costs of:

• Premier tour competition fees
• Quality instruction and coaching
• Travel to national tournaments
• Equipment and technology
• Mental performance training
