Through the Golf With Us program, Bank of America is making golf accessible for young players in Augusta with rounds of golf at local courses for $5 or less.
“Building on a strong first year, Bank of America has teamed up with Youth on Course to again offer free, one-year memberships to Augusta kids (ages 6-18),” according to a news release.
Last year, more than 405 kids from Augusta took advantage of the offer and played 681 rounds.
Children between the ages 6-18 in the Augusta-Aiken area are encouraged to enroll in a free, one-year membership to Youth on Course, courtesy of Bank of America. Enrollment for new members is open until June 15, 2026 at BofA.com/GolfwithUs.
“At Bank of America, we see ‘Golf with Us’ as a vital investment in the future of our young people right here in Augusta. It’s about breaking down barriers and making golf truly accessible and affordable for the next generation,” said Ora Parish, president, Bank of America Augusta-Aiken, in a news release. “Through Golf with Us, we’re also nurturing the important life skills that will shape who these kids become on and off the course.”
Golf with Us includes access to First Tee Augusta and Forest Hills Golf Club, to name a few for $5 or less per round. The full list is available at YouthOnCourse.org.

Bank of America launched Golf with Us in partnership with Youth on Course to expand affordable access to golf nationwide. Reigning Masters Champion Rory McIlroy made a $500,000 Donation to Youth on Course to fund 70,000 rounds of golf for children.
“Our partnership with Bank of America has been a game changer for Youth on Course, accelerating our mission and scaling our impact in communities across the country,” said Adam Heieck, Chief Executive Officer, Youth on Course. “As Youth on Course proudly celebrates its 20th anniversary, Bank of America’s support has not only inspired tens of thousands of new young golfers but also expanded our network by adding over 100 municipal course locations and counting, ensuring that kids have safe, affordable places to play in their communities.”
In its inaugural year, Bank of America’s Golf with Us drew nearly 100,000 youth participants from every state, Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico, with members logging more than 100,000 rounds of golf nationwide. Of those members, more than 22,000 were girls including many first-time golfers. This year, the Bank hopes to enroll 150,000 kids in Golf with Us.
