### 4/5 — Request changes

*2026-06-15, version 3.0.3*

We love youth on course and what they do for the kids. If there are future updates to the app, can the youth on course ID/Ghin be easier to find maybe right under their name on their profile page? 
I spent 10 mins going all over to find it when they asked for it.

Also when searching for courses, is it possible to search by name of town and or city like on the website? When traveling or looking ahead for courses where we might be headed, don’t always know the zip code of the area and we aren’t always at the current location of the courses we may want to play. 

Scrolling through searched/listed courses stops or slows down instead of continuing so if you’re trying to scroll quickly the swipe right seems to be pretty sensitive.  it always switches back to the profile and you have to search again. Hopefully some of these changes can be implemented. Thanks!

### 2/5 — Buggy

*2026-04-21, version 3.0.1*

I like the app in general however every time I try to login when I click the “login” button nothing happens it does not tell me my password is wrong (I know it’s right) nothing happens and it’s very frustrating especially when your at the course and it won’t work.

### 2/5 — New UI

*2026-03-26, version 3.0.0*

The new UI looks great, seems like it could be a great app, but SO many bugs. All the verification/account finisher dont work/dont register completion and it doesn’t recognize Canadian ID. Extremely brutal process and very annoying.

### 1/5 — Site navigation problems

*2026-03-10, version 2.7.3*

I renewed my grandson‘s account yesterday and the app still shows as expired. There is no way to get up with a live person to discuss any questions or problems. You have to wait for someone to get back to you via email when you have a question or problem.

### 1/5 — Terrible organization.

*2025-09-24, version 2.5.2*

Please beware of giving this organization any financial information.  When you cancel your membership they will continue to draw money from your account for years.  You will call them, they will not call you back.  You will try to contact them online and they will not respond.  You will finally get someone to answer, they will tell you it has been cancelled, but will still never give you your money back.  For an organization with such a worthwhile mission.. well, yeah.  Just don’t.

### 2/5 — Great Program, not great app

*2025-09-04, version 2.5.2*

I get caught in loops of logging in and email verification for my 8yr old who will not and does not have an email. I used the + advice to set it up with my email but still get a must validate loop.  Can’t make a course reservation either and it takes me to a different app/site. Joining was easy but using is frustrating!  I have a new iPhone 16.

### 1/5 — Create a account

*2025-08-18, version 2.5.1*

It doesn’t work

### 1/5 — Great organization, bad app

*2025-08-12, version 2.5.1*

This is not a review of Youth on Course, which is wonderful. The app, however, just doesn’t work. Tried to find courses, couldn’t click through. Logged out, couldn’t log back in. Reset password, got an error message. Deleted the app and uploaded again, now I’m locked out. Luckily I was able to find courses on the website; I called with my kids’ membership numbers and was able to book that way. I’d wanted to introduce them to golf but it seemed cost prohibitive; now they’re able to play. Super happy about that, and the annual membership fee is not an issue. I just cannot use the app.

### 1/5 — search button doesn’t work

*2025-07-31, version 2.5.0*

search button doesn’t work in app and its updated in app store.

### 1/5 — App is Barely Usable

*2025-06-14, version 2.4.11*

Dear App Developers, have you actually tried using this app?  Buttons are hidden under the bottom menu and it is barely functional.

### 2/5 — App fonts don’t fit on iPhone screen

*2025-06-03, version 2.4.9*

The app doesn’t work well on iPhone, have to shrink font size to smallest to fit and see all information on screen

### 1/5 — I cant even register without issues

*2026-08-28, version 3.0.4*

The registration for the app should not be as complicated as it is. I cant get past the page on the Golf Canada website, probably because im already a member, but there is no option to connect a member, only to create an account, and doesnt allow me to proceed past that page

### 1/5 — Confusing design

*2026-08-26, version 3.0.4*

App is difficult to use. Not very useful with many things that we wanna do.

### 1/5 — Login doesn’t work

*2026-08-06, version 3.0.3*

Every time I try to create an account it says error ive made sure all my info is right and nothing

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2026-07-16, version 3.0.3*

Every time you try to create an account, you’ll just be met with an “Error. Please try again.”

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-07-03, version 3.0.3*

Why does it log me out every time and I put in my username and password and it just doesn’t work app is so poorly designed it sucks

### 1/5 — BS

### 1/5 — Not able to log in

*2026-05-10, version 3.0.2*

I can’t log into my account. It says “Error try again later” every time I attempt to log into. I’m not sure if it’s because I have a Canadian ID but please fix this!!

### 1/5 — Terrible set up

*2026-04-25, version 3.0.1*

After all the updates and new tech this app is terrible to navigate and should be put to shame, I will now mess up all golf courses I play terrible

### 1/5 — Broken Sign in Button

*2026-03-30, version 3.0.0*

App used to work great now after an update it has me login again after entering my user ID and password and pressing sign in it it does nothing. The sign in button does not work.

### 1/5 — Broken

*2026-03-25, version 3.0.0*

The latest update broke the app. I can sign in but I can’t see anything including my children’s  Youth On Course IDs.

### 5/5 — Must have

*2026-03-22, version 2.7.3*

Must have if you have a youth golfer.  So many course options at a discounted rate for them to play. Awesome app!

### 5/5 — Youth on golf

*2026-02-20, version 2.7.3*

My son enjoys having time with his friends. It gives him the opportunity to to be outside and it is a beautiful course.

Recommend it to all my friends

### 5/5 — Best App for Kids Golf

*2025-10-31, version 2.6.0*

Can’t beat the Savings

### 5/5 — Greatest golf app

*2025-10-16, version 2.6.0*

This is the best thing that happened to me after i started golfing it helped me bring my friends in and makes it easy to play when you arent rich

### 5/5 — Richard

*2025-09-28, version 2.5.2*

We greatly appreciate “youth on course” program.  I do not play golf but YOC gives my son the opportunity to play on courses I could never afford.  Unfortunately I am beginning to see many courses that formerly honored YOC now significantly limiting YOC play time or no longer honoring it.

### 5/5 — In love

*2025-09-20, version 2.5.2*

As a poor 16 year old YOC has saved me a ton of money playing my favorite courses. The app is easy to use and understand and the fact that it tracks your handicap is also a nice touch

### 5/5 — The best!

*2025-04-21, version 2.4.6*

Can’t go wrong.  The cost is less than a bucket of balls at the range.  It’s incredible what they’re doing for youth golfers making it more affordable than ever.  Thank you youth on course!
