Support South Bay Youth Golf

The South Bay Youth Golf Coalition is dedicated to providing youth and all individuals with the opportunity to learn and play the game of golf in the South Bay/Harbor region of Los Angeles.

Join us to ensure that the redevelopment of The Links at Victoria Golf Course and other South Bay courses are places where youth can learn the values of the game while playing golf.
