Starting with a course of beginner lessons in a small group, ladies can give golf a try and then join our one year Academy programme designed to get them to a standard that would enable them to enjoy full membership of the club. The Academy has become a very important part of the Club, so much so, that we now run a Men’s Academy.

we attriBute Our success tO a NumBer Of factOrs:

• We have equipment available to borrow for group lessons and fun competitions. • We assign an existing lady member as a ‘buddy’ who will act as a point of contact, giving advice and encouragement, practising and playing a few holes with their Academy member. • We build confidence step by step, with a combination of practice sessions, small group lessons, individual lessons and visits to a local short course. • We hold regular Academy events where ladies can socialise and get to know one another, emphasising the social aspects of playing golf and joining a club. • We focus on short sessions, playing between 3 and 6 holes. We often play team formats, which enable ladies of all standards to contribute while building confidence and camaraderie. • So if you’ve ever thought about taking up golf, what are you waiting for?
