FREE GOLF COACHING 2006 - 16th Mar 2006

In an effort to open up more golfing opportunities, the English Golf Union and English Ladies’ Golf Association have developed several initiatives to help you get into golf, including FREE GOLF COACHING for BEGINNERS. The coaching campaign is an initiative supported by The England Golf Partnership to help develop golf in England.

FREE GOLF COACHING is available to beginners of any age, gender or background at venues all over England during 2006. Anyone wishing to experience golf for the first time can simply register with a participating venue and receive FREE GOLF COACHING - golf balls and clubs are also provided free of charge.

North Weald Golf Club Golf Range is running FREE GOLF COACHING taster sessions for beginners on Sunday 2nd, 9th, 16th and 23rd April at 11am and 12noon for 1 hour. For further information and to book a free lesson please telephone 01992 522188 and quote ‘Free Golf Coaching’. (1 session per person)

After the coaching session all participants are given information on a variety of initiatives aimed at continuing involvement in golf, including the Membership Vacancies database that enables golfers to search for available vacancies.

FREE GOLF COACHING for BEGINNERS is just one of several initiatives within the ‘Get into Golf’ grass roots structure developed by the EGU and ELGA.
