Programs
Hit Like A Girl focuses on empowering and promoting women in golf, providing opportunities for women to showcase their talents, skills, and achievements. We offer golf instruction, golf leagues, and golf socials to bridge the gap of missed opportunities on the green.
Our organization was created in 2022 to provide a space for women to learn the sport of golf and become more involved in the golfing community. To date, we have had 5 cohorts, with roughly 60 women enrolled in the program. We aim to increase program offerings, participants, and the states of operation during the 2024 golf season.
6/8-Week Golf Clinic
This is a no judgement zone, women only, 8-Week Golf Clinic. Members will start by learning the basics of golf and progressively growing their skill level from novice to graduate to the greens of a golf course.
Our 8-week golf clinics are educational, fun, and a great way to get a little exercise while making new golfing friends. Members will develop and/or improve their golf skills in a non-threatening, supportive and comfortable learning environment.
1-Day Golf Clinic
Our one-day clinics incorporate the expertise of our golf coaches in a state-of-the-art facility helping members to develop or take their game to new levels. Members will improve through areas such as proper technique, on-course strategy, and mental toughness.
Members will interact and learn through game evaluations, technical swing assessments, course management, on-course coaching, and more. The program has access to industry-leading technology and on the spot feedback on proper clubs during equipment analysis and assessment.
Game Day Social
Our game day socials are educational, fun, and a great way to get a little exercise. Participants will make new golfing friends while improve their skills in a non-threatening, supportive and comfortable learning environment.
Game Day Socials are open to all. This provides an opportunity for members to connect with guest and experts as we expand our knowledge on an array of topics such as:
-
Wine Sommelier
-
Networking with a purpose
Women’s Golf League
We are curating opportunities to engage our members by hosting organized play for women of all abilities. Our golf league is not just about playing golf. We are creating a community of like-minded women who share a passion for the sport. We welcome all members and guests to meet and/or connect on the green and over lunch.

About Clearview Golf Club...
When William "Bill" Powell encountered racial discrimination on the golf course after returning home from World War II, he decided to build his own place to play, one where people of all colors would be welcome. In 1946, he established Clearview Golf Club in East Canton Ohio: “America’s Course.”
With the help of his wife, Marcella, Powell carved nine holes out of farmland while working nights as a security guard. Without traditional golf maintenance equipment, Bill began building his course by hand. He walked the fairways with just a hand seeder around his neck to plant every blade of grass.
He opened Clearview to the public in 1948, and in 1978 expanded the course to 18 holes.
The only course designed, built, owned and operated by an African American, Clearview was named a National Historic Site by the U.S. Department of the Interior in 2001.
Hit Like A Girl will be hosting a weekend of golf, connecting, and fun!!
