About Us:

RACING & GOLFING FOR EDUCATION was created in 2006 in McAllen, TX after realizing what some of the different needs our community had were. We believe that it is essential to provide today’s youth with a clean and safe environment in order for them to be more successful in life. We do so through golf and kart racing keeping in mind Juvenal’s saying “Mens sana in corpore sano” (healthy mind in healthy body). We have realized that even though children have counseling at school, they still need something more to keep them motivated, out of trouble, and away from drugs. That is where we try to provide them with positive role models who have been successful in the sporting world..

Sports have been proven to be one of the best ways for a child to develop discipline and character. Kart racing teaches patience and discipline, it rewards persistence and consistency, and it fosters teamwork and sportsmanship. Children gain real-world experience that cannot by duplicated by any video game or television. Through golf, the children learn valuable lessons about the importance of maintaining a positive attitude, how to make decisions keeping in mind all the possible outcomes, and how to define and set goals from the golf course to their every day life. Golf is a sport that portrays a clean image, one of respect for others and for themselves. Children who become involved with Racing & Golfing for Education will learn what it takes to be champions, not only on the course, but also in life. We strongly believe that it is necessary for us to educate the youth so they can grow and become successful people, as well as keep reminding them that they are our future for someday they will be the leaders of our community.
