| LPGA-USGA Girls Golf
sites are coordinated by site directors who are LPGA or PGA
professionals, USGA members, Girl Scout leaders, Hook A Kid On Golf
directors, Executive Women's Golf Association (EWGA) members,
volunteers, moms, dads or members of local golf associations. Each
program also has two boards: an adult advisory board, consisting of
parents and others from the community who support girls' golf; and a
junior advisory board, consisting of five girls from the different
levels who assist in event planning, preparing the newsletter and
provide feedback on programs.
Individual programs cover the costs for course access, fees, snacks,
special events, instruction and miscellaneous expenses through fund
raising, membership dues and event fees, as well as donations from the
community.
Quality Instruction
Girls Golf provides a solid foundation for girls who want to
play for fun with friends and family, to compete at the high school,
college, and/or local, state, and national levels or to learn for future
career purposes, both inside and outside the golf industry.
The program offers a five-level progressive learning system on the
course, starting from the green and moving back to the tee. Participants
are divided into five levels. All levels include golf instruction and
rules geared to the girls' skill level.
Many Girls Golf programs have year-round activities, meeting monthly
during the school year and weekly during the summer months, providing
the consistency necessary for a successful learning experience.
