Eagles Wings Disc Golf Announces Junior Grant Program for 2019
Date Published
Eagles Wings Disc Golf is thrilled to bring back its popular Junior Grant Program for 2019. This year, the program has taken a significant step forward with Kids Disc Golf joining as co-owner of the grant. The partnership aims to leverage the strengths of both organizations to provide even more benefits and support to junior disc golfers.
The Eagles Wings Disc Golf Junior Grant Program is dedicated to recognizing and rewarding junior players who demonstrate exceptional skills on the course, but also prioritize giving back to their local disc golf community. Six deserving winners will be selected from a pool of applicants to receive an incredible package of prizes and benefits.
One of the key objectives of the grant is to help junior players overcome financial barriers to participating in major tournaments, such as the Junior World Championships or the United States Junior Disc Golf Championship. To support this goal, each recipient will receive entry into one of these prestigious events, along with a minimum of $100 for travel expenses.
In addition to these valuable resources, grant winners will also enjoy a range of exciting prizes and experiences, including a personalized video call from Paige Bjerkaas, the 2018 PDGA Pro Women's World Champion. Recipients will also receive a pair of shoes from KEEN Footwear, a Tour Series Disc from Nate Doss, and other exclusive items.
To be eligible for the grant, applicants must meet specific criteria, including being under the age of 18 and demonstrating a commitment to serving their local disc golf community through a proposed project. A panel of judges will carefully review applications to select the six winners, who will be announced on March 12th.
Applications are now open for the Eagles Wings Disc Golf Junior Grant Program, with a deadline of February 15th. Those interested in applying can visit the Push The Rock website and follow the link to submit their application.
The program has been made possible through the generous support of several key sponsors, including KEEN Footwear, Nate Doss, Valarie Jenkins, Dynamic Discs, Paragon Disc Golf, UDisc Pro, Eric and Tina Oakley, Kids Disc Golf, Innova Discs, and Upper Park Pinch Bag. Their contributions will help to make a meaningful difference in the lives of junior disc golfers across the country.
The Eagles Wings Disc Golf Junior Grant Program is an incredible opportunity for junior players to take their skills to the next level while also giving back to their community. We look forward to seeing the impact this program will have on the lives of these talented young athletes.
