Kris Hart, Co-founder of “Nextgenfolf”, joins us today to talk both about what his company stands for, and the importance of supporting young talent in the game of golf. Hart played varsity golf at Bryant University his first three years in college, but life got in the way senior year and he wasn’t able to compete on the team.
Three years after graduation, Nextgengolf was founded to help solve some of the fundamental problems with non-varsity collegiate golf. Nextgengolf originated as a Boston-based affordable golf membership program for recreational college students called CollegeGolfPass, which helped make golf more affordable for college students. The company expanded nationwide after merging with The National Collegiate Club Golf Association (NCCGA) in 2013, and in 2014, the Nextgengolf City Tour was developed which provides team-based golfing opportunities for young adults in their 20’s and 30’s near major cities.
