Dear Coaches,

We hope this letter finds you well.

We are writing to you today to raise funds for the Ohio Girls Golf Foundation (OGGF). Our mission is to promote and grow girls’ golf in Ohio. We provide opportunities for girls of all ages and skill levels to experience the joy and benefits of the game.

Your generous donation will directly impact the lives of girls in Ohio by:

  • Providing scholarships for girls to attend college and financial aid to attend tournaments
  • Funding junior golf programs for beginner to advanced players throughout the state
  • Supporting the development of high school girls’ golf teams
  • Promoting the LPGA and inspiring the next generation of female golfers

The top 5 coaches’ names who donate the most over the course of the fundraiser—now through Friday, January 31, 2025—will be put in a drawing to win a 9-Hole Playing Lesson for their team with PGA Golf Professional Joshua Diemer at Chagrin Valley Country Club.

Your donation is tax-deductible and will be greatly appreciated. Please see the invitation for the donation QR code. Questions? Feel free to call or text us at 216-233-5111 (Kristin) or 440-308-9894 (Krystine).

Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to working with you to grow girls’ golf in Ohio.

Sincerely,

Kristin Reboul and Krystine Frisch, Coaches and Board Members, OGGF

It’s Time to Showcase Your Skills

The Ohio Girls Golf Foundation is hosting its high school showcase on Monday, July 31 at Avon Oaks Country Club. Incoming freshmen are invited to play as well as out-going seniors, so girls have the opportunity to play for five years. 

This year LPGA Tour Professional Barb Mucha will headline this premier golf event, which consists of game improvement clinics, an 18 hole individual and team tournament, plus an awards dinner. 

Former player and scholarship recipient Emma Davies has only good things to say about the event. “I loved the OGGF event because it was so organized and it was an amazing way to bond with your team before the school year starts. I also loved how they included pre-freshman year and post-senior year because it was a great way to meet more people,” Davies said. 

Her former teammate Maggie Owens had this to say: “OGGF was one of my favorite tournaments while playing golf in high school. This was a fun and calming tournament to play during the summer. Since this tournament was before the season had begun, it was always an event that my teammates and I looked forward to. Overall, it was a refreshing and relaxing day that started out with clinics and warming up, followed by an 18-hole tournament, “ Owens said.

Liv Ritter will be a senior and has played in the OGGF.  “It’s a good ready-to-go tournament. It is a great pre-season event before the season starts. It gave me advice to improve my short-game…which is half of my game. My short game is important.”
