golf club
and encourage young golfers to play. To assist with development the
club is currently an active member of Club Golf and Active Schools
schemes.
We have 12 trained level one coaches to work with youth players and
take our in house 10 week summer coaching program. There are also
regular competitions and Open tournaments as well as last year we
set up a Junior Ryder Cup event between Whalsay Golf Club and
ourselves. It was very successful in giving our youth members more
exposure to competitive team golf.”
Challenges/Ambitions
“In no particular order I’d say an aging membership, diminishing
interest in golf itself and cutting of local sports funding on the Island
represent our biggest challenges. Over the coming years we intend
to continue on in the same vein, we have a lot of really dedicated
volunteers who put in a lot of hard work year after year so if we keep
that interest the same we will be in really good shape!
I think it would be great to keep seeing our consistent year after year
on course improvements to the greens, tees, and drainage. As well
as possibly even add in a few hole alterations and major re-designs.
As these are the kind of progressive things that members want to see
and if the members are happy then that’s a job well done in my eyes.”
