LPGA-USGA Girls Golf

LPGA-USGA Girls Golf of St. Louis

Our Mission:
"In partnership with the LPGA Foundation, we empower girls in the St. Louis Metropolitan Area through the game of golf and inspire them to dream big. "

LPGA-USGA Girls Golf (Girls Golf) was formed to connect girls, ages 6 to 17, with the game of golf. A developmental junior golf program and the only national initiative of its kind, Girls Golf presents an opportunity for girls to make lasting friendships, gain self-confidence, learn to compete and have fun, while fostering a lifetime of enjoyment for the game. Girls Golf is administered through a partnership between The Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) Foundation and the United States Golf Association (USGA). The LPGA-USGA Girls Golf of St. Louis foundation was formed to bring the program to the Greater St. Louis Area. Nationally the program has grown to more than 70,000 girls in over 415 communities.

Gabrielle & Nancy Lopez

"My daughter and I were very happy to find a local Girls Golf chapter last year (2014). Maria Palozola does a fantastic job with that program. She is trying very hard to grow the sport in and around our communities. My daughter, Gabrielle, took to her very well and that was/is very important to me. The value that we walk away with from each Girls Golf event is beyond anything we can get from a local pro. Gabrielle loves this sport and I will do whatever it takes to facilitate that. Thank you to Maria and anyone else who has helped her with this program!" - Jason Rettinghaus
