About

Our Goal
In golf, as in successful living, there is a unique emphasis
on the gentle behavior of qualities of self- discipline,
culture and etiquette, in order to conform to a higher standard
of propriety and respect between human being. Golf also
embodies the qualities of charity, a lenient judgment of
others and the opportunity for enriching the lives of all
who come in contact with the game.
Golf
...is a never-ending learning experience...
requires both discipline and patience...
is an introspective challenge... is competitive,
yet the goal is self improvement.
Golf is a good and powerful teacher. It is the primary goal
of the Wadsworth Golf Charities Foundation to have more
people of all ages, especially youth to experience its lush, wind-swept classroom.
