Golf. My Future. My Game. (GMFMG) has a rich and visionary history, sparked by the passion and foresight of Dayton-native, Craig Kirby. Established as a response to a profound belief in the transformative power of golf, GMFMG was born with a mission to redefine the educational landscape of the sport. Kirby's deep connection to golf, coupled with a desire to inspire the next generation of players, led to the inception of this groundbreaking initiative. Grounded in a commitment to make golf more than just a pastime, GMFMG aims to cultivate an understanding of the sport that extends beyond the greens and embraces the disciplines that converged to shape it.

The history of GMFMG is marked by a commitment to innovation and holistic education. Recognizing that golf is not merely a game, but a canvas for the integration of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics and Agriculture (STEAMa), Kirby envisioned a future where young golfers would emerge not just as skilled players but as individuals with an appreciation for the diverse elements that make the sport whole.

This transformative journey took a significant turn in 2021 when GMFMG forged a strategic partnership with Miami Valley Golf. This collaboration served as a catalyst for the program's expansion and further amplified its impact on the golf education landscape. Together, they embarked on ventures that included a momentous visit to Clearwater, where they had the honor of meeting the legendary Renee Powell, adding a touch of history and inspiration to their ongoing narrative.

As the GolfNEXT Studio prepares to open its doors, it symbolizes the tangible manifestation of GMFMG and Miami Valley Golf's shared commitment. This state-of-the-art facility is not merely a space for golf instruction; it's a dynamic hub designed to provide a year-round immersive experience that delves into the realms of Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics and Agriculture (STEAMa). The studio is set to become a beacon for aspiring golfers, offering a holistic education that goes beyond the game's technicalities. This will assist in exploring the interconnected disciplines that shape the contemporary golfing landscape.

In weaving together the threads of history, inspiration, and education, GMFMG and Miami Valley Golf have created a narrative that extends beyond golf itself. The collaborative efforts represent a paradigm shift, ensuring that the future of golf is intertwined with innovation, community engagement, and an understanding of the sport's heritage. The opening of The GolfNEXT Studio is not just an event but a symbolic moment, marking the commencement of a new era in golf education—one where passion, knowledge, and community converge to shape the destinies of individuals and the sport itself. As the doors swing open, the echoes of this collaboration resonate, beckoning golfers to embark on a journey that transcends the boundaries of the golf course and propels them into a future where Golf. Their Future. Their Game. unfolds in a tapestry of possibilities.
