The Kentucky Golf Foundation is pleased to announce the launch of the third year of the Gay Brewer, Jr. Grant Program. The program was born from the vision and support of friends of Mr. Brewer, each of whom wanted to create a means in which to honor his legacy and to support junior golfers in Kentucky with the dream of playing golf at the college level and beyond. The purpose of the program is to offer financial assistance to junior golfers from Kentucky with the ability to compete in junior golf competitions at the regional and national level, but, are limited in their ability to do so due to financial constraints. A total of six grants in the amount of $2,000 each ($12,000 total) will be awarded this year.
Administration of the program is being overseen by the Kentucky Golf Association and in accordance with the USGA's Rules of Amateur Status. For more information, included an application and detailed rules and guidelines, click HERE.
