NEW JUNIOR ORGANISERS’ HANDBOOK NOW AVAILABLE
A new Junior Organisers’ Handbook has been produced
by England Golf partners the English Golf Union (EGU) and
English Ladies’ Golf Association (ELGA). The handbook
provides information for junior organisers to help and support
the development of junior golf within their club.
A copy of the handbook has already been sent to all EGU affiliated
golf clubs and offers advice and guidance on various aspects
of junior golf within the club environment. Divided into easy
to access sections it covers topics such as activities and
coaching, handicapping and competitions, and the recruitment
and retention of members. It also provides examples of best
practice already in place a clubs around the country.
Richard Flint, Golf Development Manager commented, “The
new updated handbook provides a great resource to help golf
clubs develop their junior section. Along with other our other
development initiatives such as the GolfMark Award and our
Regional Development Officer network we hope to continue to
improve our support to clubs in this important area.”
Copies of the Junior Organisers’ Handbook, priced at
£14, are available to purchase either online at the
EGU website shop, www.englishgolfunion.org or by calling the
EGU’s Club Services team on 01526 354500. Alternatively
the handbook can be downloaded electronically in sections
from the EGU website.
The Junior Organisers’ Handbook is jointly provided
by the EGU and ELGA via the England Golf Partnership’s
‘Whole Sport Plan’ for golf.
