The Mission

Provide Tennessee’s youth with unrestricted, free or discounted access to the game of golf at 20+ facilities, 365 days a year.

The Scott Stallings Kids Play Free Junior Golf Initiative began at Beverly Park Par 3 Golf Course in 2015 as the “Kids Play Free Program”. In 2018 the program was rebranded to its current name and was expanded to West Knoxville and Concord Park Par 3. Since its expansion in 2018, more than 5,000 kids have played over 60,000 free rounds at Beverly Park Par 3 and Concord Park Par 3 Golf Courses.

In May 2025, Kids Play Free and Youth on Course partnered together to help put an end to the “I can’t play golf because it’s expensive” excuse. The new partnership provides free or discounted rounds of golf at 20+ golf courses across Tennessee for Youth on Course members.

The Vision

The KPF understands the importance of golf course accessibility for today’s youth. Without it, golf’s growth potential from generation to generation is severely hindered. The KPF’s vision, similar to the mission, is powerfully simple: 

Promote growth in golf and its life principles by providing youth unlimited, free and discounted access to multiple facilities in Tennessee.

The KPF has been established to create an avenue that allows our youth to enjoy the game regardless of their socioeconomic background.

Where can I play and for how much?
