BIERSHENK GOLF
We exist to leverage golf as a platform to mentor underserved youth, helping them develop life skills both on and off the course.
Enabling YOUTH to LIVE life above par
At Biershenk Golf, we believe the game of golf is a doorway — to discipline, to confidence, to a future. Founded by PGA Tour veteran Tommy Biershenk, we identify and support underprivileged youth in our community, teaching them not just how to play, but how to compete, how to carry themselves, and how to win at life.
Our Story
Biershenk Golf empowers kids through a fun, supportive community focused on mentorship, character development, and personal growth. With the help of local sponsors and community partners, we remove financial barriers by covering equipment, instruction, tournament fees, and more – making the game accessible to every child.
Beyond improving skills on the course, our mission is to provide consistent guidance, confidence, and life lessons that help shape successful futures both in golf and beyond.
OUR KIDS
Behind every swing is a child with big dreams and a passion for the game of golf. The kids of Biershenk Golf, typically between the ages of 8 – 15, come from backgrounds where opportunities to play, practice, and compete are often limited or completely out of reach. Yet despite those challenges, they show up eager to learn, grow, and fall in love with the game every single day. Through mentorship, encouragement, and access to resources they may not otherwise have, we’re helping these young athletes build confidence both on and off the course – proving that with the right support, golf can become so much more than just a game.
