As a premiere staffing provider and consultative partner, we’re not here to tell you what to do. Or how to think. We’re not that type of consultant. Instead, we create a partnership that’s shaped by your needs, culture, and goals using a consultative approach to cut through the noise and jargon to discover solutions that make sense for your business. We know that consultants have a reputation. You think consulting and you imagine a big invoice and a dry report that leaves you no further forward than you were before. We do things differently.

What’s more, we deliver functional advice without the jargon. Our support helps to simplify your goals, not complicate them.

Par Excellence Youth Development Huntsville Selected to Receive Funds Through Industry's 'Make Golf Your Thing' Grant Program
One of my mottos is, "Give youth a gift for life youth golf development," Howard Bankhead, Executive Director, PEYD. Golf is the one activity that you can enjoy not only watching but playing as well for a lifetime.
Huntsville, Alabama Monday, June 27, 2022 Par Excellence Youth Development Huntsville has been selected to receive funding through a dedicated grant program operated by the golf industry's DEI campaign, Make Golf Yo ur Thing. As one of 81 designated organizations across the U.S., Par Excellence Youth Development Huntsville was chosen for its efforts to increase golf participation among underrepresented populations of the sport.
The grant program was established to support organizations or programs dedicated to increasing golf participation among underrepresented populations in the sport (i.e., Black, Latinx, Asian, Indigenous communities, as well as women, LGBTQI+ individuals, veterans, and individual s with disabilities). The program is being financially supported by industry partners committed to helping make the game more welcoming and inclusive for all.
