LIVINGSTON, NJ — The West Essex YMCA, a branch of the Metropolitan YMCA of the Oranges, is proud to announce a new partnership with All Square Performance Chiropractic & Golf to bring youth golf instruction to campers attending Super Summer Day Camp in Livingston this summer.

Through the sponsorship, All Square PCG is providing funding for a fun, game-based golf curriculum, staff training, and modified golf equipment designed specifically for youth learners. The program will introduce campers to the fundamentals of golf in an engaging and accessible environment, helping children build confidence while developing new skills.

Golf has long been recognized as a sport that teaches valuable life lessons both on and off the course. However, many children and families face barriers to participation due to the cost of equipment or limited access to golf facilities. The All Square PCG sponsorship helps remove those barriers by providing campers with the opportunity to experience the sport without the expense of purchasing their own equipment.

"At the YMCA, we believe every child deserves the opportunity to discover new interests, develop healthy habits, and build confidence through positive experiences," said Cheryl Tuturice, District Executive Director at West Essex YMCA. "Thanks to the generosity of All Square PCG, our campers will be introduced to a sport that promotes physical activity and personal growth while having fun alongside their peers."

The golf program focuses on age-appropriate activities and modified equipment that make learning easy and enjoyable for beginners. By emphasizing movement, teamwork, and skill development through play, the program creates early success experiences that encourage continued participation and confidence.

"We're thrilled to support the YMCA's mission of building a stronger, healthier, and more engaged community for people of all ages," said Andrew Spehar, Clinic Director and Owner of All Square PCG. "Some of my earliest experiences with organized sports happened through Y programs, and those experiences sparked a lifelong love of athletics while helping me build friendships and valuable life skills. That's why this partnership means so much to us. By sponsoring youth golf instruction at camp, we're giving more children the opportunity to discover a sport we love, develop important skills both on and off the course, and create some lasting memories of their own."
