Kilcoy Golf extending women’s clinic
THE Kilcoy Golf Club has had to organise an additional 6-week Active Women and Young Adults Program clinic, after receiving an outstanding response to their first clinic, which started on Wednesday, February 19 and Thursday, February 20.
The clinic is making use of coaching professional Jack Day, from Woodford Golf Club, who has impressed the club and ladies with his knowledge of golf and his ability to relay teachings to the ladies, some of whom have never played golf before.
Kilcoy Golf Club were fortunate to acquire a grant from Golf Australia to help the club run these clinics.
“Our aim is to encourage more young adults and women to come out and try their hand at golf, and also to join a very welcoming and friendly club,” Robyn from the Kilcoy Golf Club said.
“Each week the ladies are taught the proper technique of different clubs. So far, they have used their 8 irons, drivers and this week they will be concentrating on putting.”
Towards the end of the 6-week clinic, Mr Day will take them out on the course to put into action all that they have learned.
“We have some very talented ladies out there and I hope that they can keep up their golf by either joining our club or another club,” Robyn said.
For those interested in the second 6-week clinic, which will start on the April 24, contact Robyn on 0419 676 507 or email gnrw@bigpond.net.au.
