Chris Noble - Nextgengolf’s National High School Golf Association Manager
Special guest
Growing up in a small Midwest Michigan town within a religious and conservative family, Chris led a life that was not his own. The culture of golf is not one that traditionally embraces his lifestyle. This led Chris to seek change.
Noble played competitive golf since the age of seven. In high school, he was a four-year member of the Michigan All-State team and went on to play varsity at Holy Cross College at Notre Dame. He was later named NAIA Academic All-American his junior and senior years, helping his team compete at the NAIA National Championship in 2012.
Noble seeks to make golf a sport of inclusivity; not one that is elitist towards race, gender or sexual orientation. As Nextgengolf’s NHSGA Manager, he’s made a significant impact on a new wave of golfers providing affordable, team-based golfing opportunities for non-collegiate golfers.
Chris Noble - Nextgengolf’s National High School Golf Association Manager has been a guest on 2 episodes.
