GLIC Youth Board members volunteer as on-course mentors for 8 to 12 year old beginner juniors during group rounds. Walking alongside young golfers, guiding them through every hole — our members say it's one of the most rewarding experiences they've ever had. You learn patience, communication, and what it truly means to lead by example. This is the kind of experience that shapes who you become — not just what you put on a resume.
"It changed the way I see leadership." — GLIC Board Member
GLIC runs volunteer events providing golf instruction and financial support to underserved students and families who otherwise wouldn't have access to the sport. Members actively participate — teaching beginners, organizing equipment drives, and helping make golf accessible to every student regardless of background. Every event is a chance to make a real difference in someone's life while building your own character and service record.
Youth GLIC hosts charity golf tournaments at premier Southern California courses. Members don't just play — they help plan, organize, and run the events from start to finish: registration, scoring, coordination, and logistics. It's real event management experience that colleges notice. You gain hands-on project leadership skills while competing in a sport you love.
As a School GLIC club member, you join your school's golf team for group lessons, practice sessions, and inter-school matches led by PGA-certified professionals. It's team bonding, skill-building, and competitive fun — all within your own school community. Whether you're a beginner or experienced, School GLIC meets you where you are and helps you grow alongside your classmates.
Board members access exclusive Growth Mentoring Circles with current Ivy League college student mentors. Topics include academic planning, leadership development, and college admissions strategy. Plus, receive personalized guidance on how to highlight your GLIC experience in essays and scholarship applications — turning your volunteer work and leadership into a compelling story that admissions officers remember.
Every activity you do with GLIC counts. As a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit, GLIC officially issues Volunteer Hour Certificates and GLIC Achievement Awards. Outstanding members who demonstrate exceptional leadership and service are awarded scholarships and additional financial support. Your effort is seen, valued, and rewarded — every step of the way.
Your dedication doesn't go unnoticed.
