OUR MISSION
The mission of U.S Kids Golf is to help kids have fun learning the lifelong game of golf and to encourage family interaction that builds lasting memories.
OUR HISTORY
U.S Kids was started in January, 1997 as a solution to the problem it’s founder, Dan Van Horn had when getting his kids into golf. His children, ages 3 and 5 were enthusiastic at first but their interest dropped quickly.
“They weren’t having fun” Van Horn recalls “it seemed that they lost interest after only 15 minutes. At the time, I didn’t know cutoffs and junior clubs were so heavy. They were not only hurting my kids’ swings but also their desire to play.” That’s when Dan Van Horn began developing Ultralight Kidsclubs, designed to be 25% lighter than adult and most junior clubs, and formed the company U.S Kids Golf. Since then, parents and pros across the country and around the world have seen the incredible difference Ultralight and Performance Light Kidsclubs have made in their child’s swing and enthusiasm for the game.
