2011 Caddie Season
The 2011 MMJGA season is off to a tremendous start. We have had great attendance and interest at both our Informational Meetings and are thrilled to see so many new faces interested in golf and caddying.
Registration is now closed for the 2011 Summer Caddie Program. For those who have attended orientation or spoken to Program Director Mike Wiens, training will begin soon. If you missed Registration for the 2011 Season please join our Mailing List so you can be updated on all things MMJGA and be ready to register for the 2012 Season.
Helping kids stay on course.
Minnesota Minority Junior Golf Association (MMJGA) began with a simple observation: if you give kids a chance, teach them a life skill, expose them to opportunity and surround them with the support, discipline and direction of a timeless sport and positive peer group, they will flourish.
Since 1987, MMJGA has been giving inner-city, low-income and minority youth a chance to learn the great game of golf and to earn extra income and life skills through caddying. The results have been wonderful. Our graduates have gone on to earn scholarships, pursue college educations, maintain friendships from the program and develop a lifelong love for the game of golf.
We need your help!
MMJGA relies solely on private and corporate sponsors, philanthropic organizations and partners. We are proud that all funds donated to MMJGA directly benefit youth. We need your help, please consider donating today.
Tiger Woods takes time out for kids.
"My father has always taught me that there are only two things in life you have to do. You have to share and you have to care." Tiger Woods
One of the top role models today for minority youth is an articulate, soft-spoken and world-respected golfer. But how can inner-city youth aspiring to "be like Tiger" participate in a game that is not always accessible to them? Pictured above is former MMJGA Program Director Jack Stahlmann and Tiger Woods with MMJGA Junior golfers James and Nick. For more about Tiger's visit with MMJGA click here.
