WPGC Junior Golf Scholarship Program 2019
Back in 2013 the club decided that due to the strength in its Junior program to create a scholarship program.
This initiative is designed to introduce children to golf that have likely never played before and afford them the opportunity to learn.
The program begins at the local schools where all of the children will take part and learn a little golf.
This is followed by a select group being chosen to take part in an after school club followed by additional tuition for some at Wimbledon Park Golf Club with the prospect of membership a possibility for those that show the most talent.
We are able to offer coaching within Schools using the Golf Foundations popular Tri-Golf equipment. Tri-Golf is a specifically created teaching kit made by professionals to teach children from the ages of 4 upwards and can be run in an inside facility, or weather permitting outside surfaces. The elements that we would cover include knowledge of the set up and swing and learning about the short game, for example chipping and putting. This would include exciting learning games which would include number and memory games. All children would use the specially crafted clubs made of plastic and balls made of rubber. This allows coaches to be creative with their coaching sessions and creates a great deal of entertainment and interest with younger children.
If you're a local school and are interested in the prospect of one of our professionals offering this FREE scheme at your school please feel free to contact me on 07969 558908 or email me at kids@wpgc.co.uk
