Parents in Golf is a new educational programme developed by the Confederation of Professional Golf [CPG] that aims to move the needle in golf development and participation number across countries through focusing on parents and their children – together forming a crucial interest group for golf.
Created by a panel of experts in junior golf and golf development, countries around the world can apply for and run the programme tailored to their circumstances.
The programme focuses on building and supporting the relationships between children, parents and the coach, using golf as a medium for children’s development.
For the parent, the programme can help them better understand their children, the various ways that golf can aid personal development, and allow them to support their children’s involvement in golf.
