  • Historic Merger Finalised
    Historic merger finalised An update from the Ladies’ Golf Union and The R&A We have great pleasure in writing to inform you that the merger of the Ladies’ Golf Union (LGU) and The R&A has been finalised and will come into effect from 1 January 2017. The merger of the two governing bodies is a historic and hugely exciting step which will enable us to support golf and speak with one voice for all those who play – women and men and girls and boys. A great deal of work has been carried out over the last year to bring the merger to completion and we would very much like to thank everyone who has played a part in the process and particularly the national associations, LGU affiliated clubs, partners and sponsors for the tremendous support we have received. Integration The integration of the two organisations puts us in a better, stronger position to realise our collective vision for growing the game of golf around the world and our combined resources and staff expertise will help us to achieve our shared aims for the development of golf. The completion of the merger is a progressive and important move for the development of women’s golf, including increasing girls’ and women’s participation and encouraging more families to enjoy golf as a recreational activity. Bringing the two organisations together creates a platform that will allow us to develop our aspirations for women’s golf on a global stage and encourage more girls and women to play golf and become members of golf clubs.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2015 CHAIRMAN's REPORT Dr Val
    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 CHAIRMAN’S REPORT Following on from the adoption of the Governance and Electoral procedural review last year and GUW’s commitment to Sports Wales Governance Framework we advertised Board and Chairmen of Committee vacancies. The number and calibre of applicants was gratifying and has resulted in the appointment of a group of people with a diverse range of skills that will enable us to continue to build on the excellent foundation and progress achieved by GUW since its inception in 2007. A strategic review of GUW will be held shortly to ensure we are addressing the needs of Welsh golf in the best possible way. Dr Val Franklin Richard Dixon continues to manage and support a dedicated team of staff whose hard work and commitment delivers the best possible programmes to support Welsh golf clubs and players. It’s always sad to lose members of any such team but we wish Gavin Reen, Stuart Stenhouse and Ben Waterhouse all the best in their future careers and thank them for their contributions during their time with us. Challenges remain for golf globally in terms of participation, particularly in the area of male and female golfers for which the levels of players remain at 85% and 15% in Wales respectively, and retention of members but adopting flexible approaches to being part of a club, playing the game and encouraging families should hopefully help to redress this balance. GUW’s programmes are available to support clubs and players and its encouraging that more clubs are engaging in these programmes as reflected in case studies on the GDW web site but clubs do need to fully commit to using and implementing these resources to maximise their impact and sustainability of change.
