Meet the Founder
Meet Robert Wiseman, Founder of the Birdies for Life Foundation. Wiseman is passionate about promoting golf’s natural ability to foster powerful lessons in life skills and leadership.
Robert Wiseman believes that golf is more than just a sport. Having only started playing golf in the last five years, he has quickly recognized the incredible learning opportunities the game has to offer, particularly for young individuals. Golf fundamentals provide a firm foundation for life skills of leadership, confidence building, team building and even emotional intelligence and adaptability. Wiseman picked up the sport as an adult when he could afford to do so, but he believes that if he had the opportunity to start earlier, he would have greatly benefited from the experience.
