Kids Should Play Golf

Golf is one of the few sports that is firmly rooted in integrity. You won't find referees or umpires calling shots on the course as you do in so many other sports that kids play. Instead, the player is charged with policing his/her own game and accurately (and truthfully!) reporting the results. Furthermore, consideration and respect for a fellow player and the course itself is not only expected when playing golf but inherent elements of the game - allowing a faster group to play through, planning shot and club selection while walking to the next hole, being quiet while another plays, taking care of the course during play (repair ball marks and divots!). Of course golf is good exercise as well - of both the body and the brain - and it is a sport that your child will play no matter what age (there is no shortage of octogarians on golf courses!). It's a good skill to have for social purposes, and it is a sport activity that you and your child can share. Golf is a good sports choice for kids and the benefits of playing are seemingly limitless!

One of the beneficiaries of the Accenture Tournament is The First Tee of Tucson non-profit. Their mission is to impact the lives of young people by providing learning facilities and educational programs that promote character development and life-enhancing values through the game of golf.
