Betchworth Golf Club (27th October) and Hoebridge Golf Centre (29th October) are set to be the venues for the second series of Surrey Futures Talent Days.
Young golfers from around the county have entered the event which was advertised in golf clubs and schools throughout Surrey.
Those young golfers who wow the coaches will be invited to join the 2010 Surrey Futures training squads. The 2010 Surrey Futures training will provide coaching opportunities for over 220 boys and girls in Surrey and is aimed at giving young golfers with potential a quality coaching programme.
This coaching will be lead by a team of highly trained coaches at centres across the county.
This programme has been made possible due to funding from Sport England, National Training Initiative Club & Coach Programme along from additional contributions from the Surrey Golf Union and Surrey Ladies Golf Association.
Betchworth and Hoebridge have been selected to host these talent days due to holding Golf Mark accreditation and commitment to junior golf development.
Fiona Brown, Regional Coach Development Officer:
“Not only will this programme help to produce the future stars of Surrey Golf but also lifelong participants in the game. Surrey made a fantastic start with Year 1 of the programme; the offer for those selected in Year 2 is a very comprehensive coaching programme.”
Surrey Futures is just one of a series of development initiatives run by the Surrey Golf Partnership (a partnership between the Surrey PGA, Surrey Ladies Golf Association, Surrey Golf Union and Golf Foundation). These include:
Feel Inspired:- aimed at those with young disabilities
Girls Start Up: beginner coaching at 20 centres across the county
Demonstration Sport for the 2010 Surrey Youth Games:- further details to follow in due course
