Impact Report April 2019 to March 2020 CONTENTS From school to Solheim Cup & Ryder Cup, it can all start here! THE GOLF FOUNDATION Impact Report April 2019 to March 2020 CONTENTS WELCOME FROM THE CEO 1 OUR MISSION 2 OUR YEAR AT A GLANCE 3 LEAH’S STORY 4 SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES 5 OUR CLUBS 6 GIRLS’ GOLF 8 GOLFSIXES LEAGUE 10 MAKING GOLF MORE ACCESSIBLE 13 RAISING AWARENESS 14 FUNDRAISING 16 CLUBS THAT HAVE SUPPORTED US 17 OUR SUPPORTERS 18 GOLF FOUNDATION PEOPLE 19 PRESIDENTS’ AWARDS WINNERS 20 Cover Photo: Chris Vaughan Above Photo: Sam Stephenson WELCOME FROM THE CEO Today’s Golf Foundation is a leading golf charity. We are a successful brand with a strong track record of delivery, backed by key organisations in the game such as The R&A and Professional Golfers’ Association, and supported by external organisations in the form of Sport England and HSBC. We have an experienced Board of Trustees, and a passionate workforce who are committed to the cause of creating life changing opportunities for young people using the power of golf. In my time with the Golf Foundation, both as a frontline development officer and as CEO, it has been a constant delight to see and hear how we make a difference to people’s lives. In schools and communities, the Golf Foundation Brendon Pyle provides the first touch-point to golf for hundreds of thousands of young CHIEF EXECUTIVE people of all abilities, giving an enjoyable experience and showing that the game can be played by everyone. In golf clubs, young people find a sense of belonging and learn wider values, supported by a network of high quality PGA professional coaches and a family of willing volunteers. Parents testify to how their young golfers have grown in confidence, have learned to deal with life’s challenges and developed new leadership skills. Some of the parents involved in the Foundation’s ground-breaking life skills study, Unleash your Drive, even talked about the positive impact of the programme on their whole family dynamic. For the first time this year, we have introduced a number of these powerful individual testimonies into the report as we deliberately move towards celebrating the personal impact of golf on individuals as well as our role in growing the number of young people playing the game. Many avid adult golfers that I have met understand the influence that golf has had on their own lives and describe how an introduction to the game has helped them on their own journey – personally, socially and professionally. We know that over 50% of avid adult golfers started the game as juniors so it is key to the future of the game that we help provide youngsters with a positive, enjoyable and inspiring introduction to golf. With the help of Sports Marketing Surveys Ltd, we also estimate that the lifetime value of a golfer is £94,633 and that a golf club operating an HSBC Golf Roots programme on average generates an additional £5,580 of income per year. Finally, it gives us great pride to highlight the success story around a Golf Foundation programme that incorporates many of our beliefs and was only tested 2 years ago. In 2017, GolfSixes League was tested in 24 clubs and 6 leagues in England. By 2019, GolfSixes League was delivered in 233 clubs across 55 leagues in England, Scotland and Wales. It led to a 35% increase in affiliated junior membership at the clubs involved (49% in England) and involved 28% girls. As a result, our great supporter The R&A will be investing in the expansion of GolfSixes League with the help of the 4 Home Nations going forward. The closure of schools, community groups and golf clubs in March due to the Covid-19 pandemic meant a sudden end to our operational year, so once the restrictions are lifted, the Golf Foundation will need to be ultra-focused about its purpose, programmes and impacts. As we have proven before, we are an agile and adaptable organisation, and very much up for the challenge. In the meantime, I hope that you enjoy reading about the difference we have made to young people’s lives and how the Golf Foundation is helping to grow participation in the game. www.golf-foundation.org THE GOLF FOUNDATION 1 OUR MISSION ‘Changing the lives of young people through an introduction to golf’ Who we are We take adapted versions of the benefit them for the rest of their game to schools and community lives.

Leah was introduced to golf by the Golf Foundation, and she has won our Skills for Life trophy twice. This is Leah's story: I started playing golf at my primary school and then continued to play StreetGolf at secondary school before attending regular PGA coaching lessons at my local HSBC Golf Roots Centre. I have now played in the GolfSixes League both years, and have been a member of Toft Hotel Golf Club for three years. Since learning to play I have had to develop so many skills. I am a different person; I was shy but I have become more confident by playing golf. I now help coach the younger groups.

  • Ron Arnst's HMG Course Collection Summaries
    HISTORY MAKER GOLF Championship Golf Game • Course Summaries Course Collection ONE Blackjack GC, Las Vegas NV / based on TPC SUMMERLIN TPC Summerlin’s layout, carved from a magnificent swath of rugged desert terrain by renowned golf course architect Bobby Weed, provides a good reference for the Blackjack GC. TPC Summerlin’s lush bentgrass greens, numerous water features and an abundance of pine trees all contrast dramatically with undisturbed desert washes. The course features four closing holes that deliver top flight golf drama. The final charge begins with the par 4, 15th hole – a drivable par 4 that will temp most players. If the tee shot misses the green, an “up and down” birdie is possible, but not easy, due to the severely elevated and undulated green – which is surrounded by five bunkers that regularly attract stray tee shots. The 16th hole is a relatively downhill par-5 that is reachable with two good shots. The green is guarded by water short of the green, and bunkers beyond. Only a mid-iron will be necessary for the second shot, with a birdie almost a certainty. A challenging and un-nerving par-3, the 17th hole plays downhill with the green guarded closely by a lake on the left and by bunkers on the right. Par is good score and birdies are rare, should players need to make up ground. The 18th is a well-designed and strategic finishing hole which moves right to left off the tee. The green is protected on the left by a lake. An aggressive tee shot with the driver can leave the player just a short iron to a very deep green from front to back.
