Reliance Matrix to present Junior Golf Clinic at 2024 Epson Tour Championship

Event held in partnership with, and to benefit, First Tee - Coachella Valley

Contact: David Gittelman, Reliance Matrix [email protected]

October 2, 2024 – Indian Wells, California Reliance Matrix, a national DEI Partner of the Epson Tour, will be presenting a Junior Golf Clinic for young members of the First Tee - Coachella Valley program as part of the 2024 Tour Championship at Indian Wells Golf Resort.

The Clinic will take place on Saturday, October 5th at 2:30 p.m. local time, and will feature Epson Tour professionals as instructors and facilitators. According to tournament leadership, First Tee - Coachella Valley (FTCV) members and local high school girls’ golf team students will serve as standard bearers for the tournament’s lead groups on both Saturday and Sunday afternoon for the third and final rounds of tournament play.

Reliance Matrix is a national leader in employee benefits and absence management, and in 2023 was named the #1 US absence management provider, by employees served, by Spring Consulting Group. This year Reliance Matrix began a three-year commitment as a national DEI partner of the Epson Tour. As such, a portion of sponsorship fees paid are allocated to directly lower tournament fees for the athletes, all of whom are competing to earn entry into next year’s LPGA Tour.

“We are thrilled to be a new and growing part of the Epson Tour family, particularly in a role where we can promote access and pay equity for world class female athletes,” said JoAnne Doyle, Vice President Group Sales for Reliance Matrix. One of few executive level sales leaders in the group insurance space, Doyle has presented recently on diversity in the industry and is hosting a group of national partners – both men and women – at the Championship.

“In addition to promoting women on and off the golf course, we have a long legacy of providing and promoting life-changing programs for students, especially in underserved areas,” she said.

Since 1996, tens of thousands of teens have benefited from Reliance Matrix Foundation’s cultural outreach programs that build self-esteem, enhance awareness of career opportunities and help develop critical thinking skills through long term partnership with extraordinary, world-renowned cultural institutions such as The Philadelphia Museum of Art, Pennsylvania Ballet and The Philadelphia Zoo.

First Tee - Coachella Valley was established in 2008 and is one of 150 First Tee chapters now operating in the US, Canada and other international locations. During the most recent fiscal year FTCV had record registration in its after-school golf course programs and offered First Tee P.E. classes to 20,000 elementary school students in the Desert Sands and Palm Springs Unified School Districts. FTCV maintains partnerships with all three local Boys and Girls Clubs, the YMCA of the Desert, the Desert Hot Springs Recreation Center, We are One United, Variety of the Desert and also serves the East Valley Desert Recreation District Community Centers.

“We are excited to participate in the Epson Tour’s final 2024 stop at Indian Wells Golf Resort,” said Kyle Winn, Executive Director of First Tee – Coachella Valley. “Our First Tee kids are inspired by LPGA tour professionals and look forward to the clinic. FTCV is a proud charitable partner of this event and is thankful to the Epson Tour, the City of Indian Wells and Reliance Matrix for their support.”

“We are sending our best wishes to all the tournament’s players and look forward to participating in the Championship event for many years,” he added.

The Junior Golf Clinic will also be commemorated by a special donation to First Tee - Coachella Valley, made on behalf of the Tour Championship, Tour sponsor Epson, and Reliance Matrix.

“We are thrilled to have Reliance Matrix support the junior clinic at the Epson Tour Championship at Indian Wells,” said Jody Brothers, Chief Business and Operating Officer of the Epson Tour. “I’ve been aware of the outstanding First Tee Program here in the Coachella Valley for a while and am thrilled that through the support of our partner Reliance Matrix, our athletes are able to connect with these outstanding young athletes during such an important week.”
