Announcing The
Chris Arceneaux Golf Academy!
As a Professional Golfer and Founder of the Darby Foundation and someone with over 30-years of experience in golf, and the industry that surrounds this great game, I am pleased to announce my decision to launch the “Chris Arceneaux Golf Academy” this fall season.
My endeavour will launch on Monday, October 21 at 7:00 p.m., at the Alverta B. Gray Middle School located at 70 Greenwich Street in Hempstead, NY 11550.
On that evening, I will lead a presentation consisting of critical factors which include, academic requirements, scholarship opportunities and training and tournament preparation. The mission of the “CHRIS ARCENEAUX GOLF ACADEMY” is to impact the lives of young people by providing children with life enrichment experiences and opportunities through the game of golf; by promoting character development and instilling core values such as self confidence, self determination and respect for one self and others which are critical to becoming good citizens of the United States.
Joining me for the launch will be school Principal Hank Williams (photo L.).
We will host a special seminar and introduce students to a lifetime of learning program that is designed to teach juniors long-term athletic development. I am excited about this new venture and believe that my work will help bring another generation of talented golfers into the game.

Teaming up with me, to launch this Pilot Program, will also be the Founder/CEO of SG Products Inc., Mr. Eugene Mallory (photo L.) inventor of the GurfBall® Training System (GTS). The mission GTS is to reduce the high cost of introducing thousands of young children to golf while using core concepts as a way of building character and exposing them to the wonderful world of golf. GurfBalls® and GurfMats™ will be donated by SG Products for this Pilot Program. For more information on these products please go to www.GurfBall.com.
Many of you have followed my progress and know my history of working with youth. I am proud of having such extensive experience in this area and I have worked hard to continue to grow my involvement. You may recall that I started The Darby Foundation four short years ago, after spending the last decade playing and teaching as a professional golfer.
I have been a part of successful enterprises, worked as an accomplished businessman, motivator, entrepreneur, educator, celebrity judge, philanthropist, ambassador and spokesperson on radio and TV commercials. Yes, my ventures have been spread far and wide, and, have made an impact on young and old. These are just a few of my many accomplishments and I believe that my limitations for the future are boundless.
The Chris Arceneaux Golf Academy After School and Summer Junior Programs offers an exciting way to expose golf to juniors of all ages and ability levels. The program also provides a new approach to teaching golf and helping youth learn the game while having fun in the process.
I am particularly eager to share with you that the series will be offered by golf coaches and golf professionals in a group environment. The Chris Arceneaux Golf Academy links fundamental golf motion into play creating lifelong golfers! It’s just that simple—and just plain FUN and kids love it.
The after school and summer clinics will take place throughout the season and be segmented according to age group. Each learning session will provide golf equipment and memorable golf experiences, fitness training and education on nutrition. I plan to include plenty of opportunities for on-and-off course athletics. These golf skills will be the basis for youth learning golf along with good sportsmanship and open play.
I cannot overstate just how happy I am to share this good news with you on the launch of my academy and of my supportive participating partners. For more information, or to register your school, community center or organization please visit www.chrisarceneauxgolfacademy.com or contact me at 917-697-7958. I’ll be happy to talk with you about any special needs your youth may have. Website coming soon!
