The partnership brings together two brands committed to fueling and supporting junior athletes through life. The UNDERRATED Golf Tour, now in its fifth U.S. season, is the only platform of its kind in junior sports, combining elite competition with a structural commitment to equity, access and opportunity for junior athletes who need it most and have been offered it least. It operates at the intersection of sport and social impact, creating an environment where junior golfers from underrepresented communities and young women compete at the highest level while building relationships, skills and opportunities that carry them through life. Through specialized seminars, leadership programming and direct access to college coaches and recruiters, along with industry leaders, the tour develops the whole athlete, not just the golfer.<\/p>\n
Student athletes from the UNDERRATED Golf Tour compete in a series of five regional tournaments while also engaging with college coaches, golf executives and industry leaders. BUNCHIES will be available at every stop of the U.S. tour, from Gainesville and Scottsdale to Los Angeles and New Jersey to provide players with a clean, functional snack built for performance.<\/p>\n
\u201cBUNCHIES was built to fuel golfers and athletes at every level,\u201d said Hally Leadbetter, founder of BUNCHIES. \u201cThe UNDERRATED Golf Tour is doing something truly special and impactful in the game by creating real opportunities for young athletes, and we\u2019re thrilled to support the players with clean, functional energy throughout the rounds.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cEverything we do at UNDERRATED Golf is about creating the best possible experience for our players, both on and off the course,\u201d said Jason Richards, Athletic Director of UNDERRATED Golf. \u201cBUNCHIES is a natural fit for the Tour because Hally and her team understand the game, the grind and what junior golfers need to feel prepared throughout a long day of competition. We\u2019re excited to have them with us this season as we continue building a platform that gives these athletes the access, support and opportunities they deserve.\u201d<\/p>\n
