The Ladies Love Golf initiative is the brain child of 3 Hammers Senior Golf Instructor John Cheetham who in just 6 months has welcomed 78 lady members to the game of golf. Most ladies joined the revolutionary new Academy by progressing through the Complex’s popular Learn 2 Play Programme, of which half of all students are female.
Ladies Love Golf members enjoy a social, fun and relaxed golfing environment as well as having exclusive access to discounted green fees across the region’s golf courses, overseas coaching breaks, PGA away days, a choice of weekly coaching sessions and a free Ladies Love Golf member golf shirt – all for an annual membership fee of £49pp.
Sarah said: “It was great to see so many ladies on the course enjoying themselves in such a relaxed environment. It’s important for ladies to have access to venues to enjoy playing golf under relaxed conditions and also to receive top quality coaching is a bonus.”
