City Girls Golf is my go-to-community for a space where I can be myself. I always thought Golf was a men only thing but it's a refreshing to see City Girls Golf challenge tradition and make space where girls can golf be themselves.

OUR MISSION
Meet our Founder
Sierra Balgar, aged 26, hails from Harlem, New York. Raised in a household blending Caribbean and American cultures by her grandmothers and mother, she learned early on the value of resilience in the face of adversity. Introduced to golf in her twenties by a friend, she discovered a passion for the sport's challenges. However, she also noticed the striking lack of diversity on the golf course and struggled to find a community that resonated with her. In response, she established City Girls Golf, aiming to unite women of color from urban backgrounds in learning and enjoying golf. Armed with only her iPhone and leveraging social media, she sparked a nationwide movement, inspiring women from diverse backgrounds to embrace the game.
All About Us
City Girls Golf was born in Washington D.C. with a singular vision: to create a space where women could learn, embrace, and thrive in the game of golf. What began as a simple hobby has now blossomed into a powerful nationwide movement—one that continues to inspire women across the globe to pick up a club and step into a world that was once reserved for the few.
We have redefined what it means to belong in the golf community, and our mark on this industry will forever be etched in history. From the moment we began, City Girls Golf has revolutionized the game, making it more inclusive, more vibrant, and more accessible. Our reach has been recognized by prestigious platforms such as Essence, NASDAQ, Revolt, Ask Nicely, US Black Chambers, and Black Sports Biz, all of whom have championed our mission and success.
Founded by Sierra Balgar, a trailblazer and Harlem native with Caribbean and African American roots, City Girls Golf is a testament to the power of determination and passion. At just 27 years old, Sierra embarked on her golf journey two years ago. It didn’t take long for her to recognize the glaring lack of diversity in the sport. Inspired to change that narrative, she created a space where women of color could come together to learn, grow, and thrive in golf.
Her journey began with just an iPhone and a vision, sparking a movement that has now touched thousands of women nationwide. Sierra’s belief is simple: with faith, resilience, and a strong community, anything is possible. She started City Girls Golf with nothing but social media and a dream, and in doing so, she has built a nationwide network that is changing the face of golf.
Join us in this ongoing journey. Together, we are rewriting the story of golf—one swing, one connection, one woman at a time.
