While in high school, Co-Founder Robin Rosado had a golf coach who was knowledgeable on the college recruitment process. “Without him, I don’t think I would have had the chance to get recruited by the University of South Carolina. My family and I were clueless,” Robin remarks.

Later in life, Robin was working as the head professional at a small public golf course. “I kept watching qualified players get overlooked by college programs. That’s where this vision began. I wanted every kid to have a chance to get the exposure needed to play golf in college.”

Over the years, Robin realized that his success as an entrepreneur, corporate leader, and golf industry leader could be attributed to his depth of experience in playing golf. “I was giving golf lessons to many C-Suite executives. They saw the importance of golf as a means to building relationships in the corporate world.”

Throughout these experiences, Robin formed a clear mission and vision for Before the Links. “We exist to provide high-level junior golfers with the resources needed to join a college golf program, while guiding them through a corporate leadership development program. We can help teach young golfers to leverage their golf skills and learned leadership skills to succeed in college and beyond in the corporate world.”
