STARTING A TEAM IS EASIER THAN YOU THINK

$0 cost to the school. Minimal administration.

Your school doesn’t need an existing golf program or a large athletic budget.

Elevate provides a proven blueprint, forms, tournament administration, scheduling, scoring, and the structure needed to get a program started.

We recommend operating Middle School Golf as a club rather than a school sport, which simplifies the process and eliminates the need for school-provided transportation.

Parents and volunteers can help lead the club while Elevate handles the competition.

BUILT FOR MORE THAN JUST THE BEST GOLFERS

Not every sixth grader is ready to play the same tees or compete under the same conditions—and they shouldn’t have to.

Elevate’s three-division structure allows golfers to compete at an appropriate level while still representing their school.

A DIVISION — COMPETE

For experienced golfers ready for traditional competitive middle school golf.

B DIVISION — DEVELOP

For golfers building tournament experience and preparing for higher-level competition.

C DIVISION — LEARN

For newer golfers ready to experience organized school golf in an environment designed for their stage of development.

One program. Different starting points. A pathway forward.

THE BRIDGE TO HIGH SCHOOL GOLF

Golfers shouldn’t have to wait until high school to experience competing for their school.

Middle School Golf gives players the opportunity to learn how to compete independently, keep score, understand rules, manage pace of play, handle tournament pressure, and contribute to a team.

Experienced golfers get meaningful competition.

Developing golfers get opportunities to grow.

Newer golfers get a reason to stay in the game.

The goal isn’t just to find today’s best middle school golfers. It’s to create tomorrow’s high school golfers.

WISCONSIN MIDDLE SCHOOL STATE CHAMPIONSHIP

The Road Leads to High Cliff

The season culminates at High Cliff Golf Course, where qualifying teams and individuals from each conference come together for the Wisconsin Middle School Golf State Championship.

Players compete for team and individual championships while representing their schools on one of the biggest stages of their middle school season.

WHAT DOES THE SCHOOL HAVE TO DO?

Less than you might think.

Elevate has already built the framework.

We provide participating schools with a blueprint and forms they can use rather than asking administrators or parent organizers to build a golf program from scratch.

Elevate handles the competitive infrastructure. The school provides students with the opportunity to participate.

You don’t have to build the program yourself.
