This is my son, Christopher 💙 🧩
Born on the Friday of the Ryder Cup in 2010, He’s about to turn 15 and when he was diagnosed with autism at age 2, at that time I couldn’t imagine him having what many call a “typical childhood.”
Things like playing sports, making eye contact, showing spontaneous joy, or developing passions of his own all felt so far away back in 2012.
But here we are. Through years of self-learning, research, certifications, and an unshakable belief in his potential, I’ve applied those (along with incredible supports from .ireland, , his primary school and now Christopher not only enjoys school and life, he loves golf. 🏌️♂️
As golf has always been my beloved sport, seeing him embrace it has been a dream come true. Alongside his two younger sisters (5 & 2), Christopher is one of the biggest reasons I’m founding Tee It Up Golf School to create a space where joy, growth, and opportunity come together for kids of all abilities.
Whilst it’s taking longer than I envisioned, I am hopeful of announcing a venue near Naas soon to begin activity. Until then, please so fill out and/or share the expression of interest form on the website.
