Overall Physical Health and Fitness Playing golf is very good for one’s physical health. By learning to play at a young age, kids will improve their overall physical health. Golf pulls them away from watching mindless hours of TV and instead puts them outside to enjoy a game that will strengthen the spine and core muscles. Golf can also get them interested in other sports or physical activity that could help improve their health as well. By adding in other activities, kids can improve their endurance and balance which will better their golf game as well. Improving Social Skills Children can often be shy and lack social skills. Golf is a great sport to improve these skills because it helps them to meet new people and socialize. Kids who get into golf at a young age can usually attend junior camps or join junior leagues. This gives an opportunity every week to meet different kids and interact with them, allowing them to develop social skills. Kids also have the opportunity to learn how to socialize with adults who play the sport as well.
