Golden Greens Golf Club and Classic Golf Resort hosted the first-ever New Golfers League last month launched by Golfication and Digraj Golf. The league is aimed at providing playing opportunities to golfers who’ve just learnt the sport.
The event aspires to help new golfers ease into the world of golf by providing a fun, non-judgmental, yet educative golfing environment. Played on top courses, the league will also offer them a chance to make new friends while experiencing their first taste of competitive golf.
The trial “pay and play” games held at the Golden Greens GC and Classic Golf Resort were well received by the participants. The players experience included a presentation on basic rules, etiquette, protocol and courtesies associated with the sport.
Just before the round they received basic warm-up and golf specific drills from fitness specialist, Gautam Malhotra. The round on the course included skill based encouragement prizes and also score based awards for juniors, beginners above 18 years of age, and also those who have managed to get a handicap.
