The Youth on Course membership gives members access to all courses participating in the United States, including more than 30 facilities in Nebraska. As a member, they play for $5 or less at participating courses during designated times. There is no limit to how often members can play using their Youth on Course membership.

 

Funding

Youth on Course is based on the following formula. The NGA negotiates a preferred junior golf rate with the participating facility. YOC members have access to participating facilities where they can play for $5 or less. The Nebraska Golf Foundation subsidizes the difference between the preferred rate and the YOC member payment.

 

Duration

Youth on Course is available year-round.

Support

The Youth on Course program is supported by the Nebraska Golf Foundation.

The NGA negotiates a preferred junior golf rate with participating facilities. The YOC member pays a $5 (or less) fee for a round of golf (for 9 or 18 hole rounds). The NGF then subsidizes the difference between the preferred rate and the YOC member payment.

In order to support it's programs and initiatives, the Foundation raises funds in the following ways:

  • Individual giving (You can donate to YOC Nebraska via PayPal Here)
  • Planned giving and bequests
  • Events
  • Corporate donations
  • Strategic partnerships
