Driving for more women golfers
MOSSMAN Golf Club has received a grant from Queensland ‘Active Women and Girls Funding’ to help provide four golf clinics during May and June.
While men and younger male players, beginners through to experienced, are encouraged to get involved, one key objective is also to promote the game of golf to ladies and young female potential players.
“The number of women players has dropped in recent years, so we are hoping to reverse that trend,” said Mossman Golf Club president John Carney.
The golf clinics will cost $10 per session, with PGA professional golfers Graham Bolton and Rob Dean providing instruction on chipping, putting and driving with woods on the fairway.
Each session will commence at 4.30pm on Monday, May 12, Sunday, May 18, Sunday, May 25 and Monday, June 2.
“We’ve tried to pick dates to suit everyone and people are welcome to come along to just one or all of the sessions, if they wish,” said golf club women’s captain Sherrie Abel.
Registration is available by emailing Mossman Golf Club via info@mossmangolfclub.com.au or by calling the club on 4098 2089.
