But frankly, the women's golf experience needs a major rebrand.
Millennial + Gen Z women often don't see a space for themselves in the game--it's intimidating, stuffy, expensive, time consuming, and not exactly easy.
**Golf & Tacos has now entered the chat**
What started as a cheeky way to rally our friends to come out to the golf course, has quickly turned into a women-first golf community on a mission to remove the barriers that typically prevent women from getting into the game early in their professional careers. You won't go from newbie to pro in just a few lessons, so we've created a fun and accessible pathway that guides your skill development while building a community, both locally and nationally, to empower and support you along the way.
Since 2016, we've watched our community organically grow from 20 to over 620, exclusively through word of mouth and a bit of social media. Our participants bring an incredible attitude to every event and spots in our programs sell out minutes after opening. Over the years our DMs have received requests to launch Golf & Tacos in so many other cities that it made us ask ourselves, what if?
What if we could build that missing space in the industry?
What if we designed an experience specifically for the needs of millennial + Gen Z women?
What if we could reduce or even remove the barriers that keep them from getting into the game?
What if we could create a longer-term pathway that gave them the support needed to build confidence in their game?
Well, if 2020 has taught us anything, it's that the time to build is now. And with an incredible foundation of support we're preparing to take big leaps forward and expand into 8 new cities across Canada in 2021.
If that makes you think, oh hell ya! then you've come to the right place.
If that makes you think, I'd probably go just to eat the tacos, congrats--you've also come to the right place.
We have some big plans for the future of Golf & Tacos, and we're busy building behind the scenes! But we know each city has its own identity and we want that flavour to come through in how each local chapter comes to life. Because after all, the Golf & Tacos community is about you. This is your golf club.
Whether you've never picked up a club or you've golfed for years, we want to hear what you have to say. All we ask is that you shoot it to us straight! Don't sugar coat it. We want your real, honest feedback.
