About VHYGA
Our Mission
Virginia Highlands Youth Golf Academy is a non-profit organization founded to introduce our local youth to the Game of a Lifetime by providing instruction in the fundamentals, etiquette, and rules of the game.
We all understand the value that golf brings into our lives. Golfers may occasionally lose their way on the golf course, but rarely their way in life. Now, more than ever before, our young people need that same experience.
