National golf league for talented autistic golfers. STARS Golf promotes golf as a passion and potential career path, while providing philanthropic and community leadership opportunities.
Team Member in Natick, MA
Tyler Lagasse, is one of the founding STARS League members. In 2022, after graduating from University of Massachusetts Lowell and being unable to find employment, the Flutie Foundation partnered with Tim Carlson, Manager of the PGA Tour Superstore in Natick, to land Tyler an interview and, and subsequently, a "dream" job in an industry he is passionate about.
Tyler then went on to compete in the Special Olympics USA Games, winning a Gold Medal in the top division.
Also at the Games, autistic golfer, Matt Glumac, lost his clubs and was unable to compete. Thanks to our partners at PGA Tour Superstore, the Flutie Foundation got Matt new golf clubs to win the Silver Medal!
