South Bradford Golf Club can already boast of a Golf Mark for their development of junior golf, and they are now turning their attention to the women’s game.

They have launched a campaign to encourage female participation in the sport with the help of England Golf, who, it is hoped, will provide funding for the scheme as well as their slogan ‘Get Fit, Get Active, Get Golfing’.

The club is due to hold nine golfing events and three social engagements throughout next month, and are encouraging local women to give the game and their club a try.

One of the experiences on offer is a Women’s Golf Taster Day on Sunday, May 8 between 2pm and 4pm, which is designed to introduce any women to the sport who may not have played it before.

No previous involvement in the sport is necessary and equipment is provided, with prospective visitors being encouraged to wear flat shoes and comfortable clothing.

Anyone requiring further information can telephone 01274-679195.
