The YLCGA aim to promote the participation of Junior Girls within the sport of golf. We offer girls the opportunity to participate in our Junior Coaching Pathway which is focussed on the England Golf 5 Pillars leading to progressive Player development, all delivered in a safe environment with high quality coaches .

All sessions are subsidised to allow for wider participation.

Player development starts with Parents/ schools and Yorkshire Member Golf Clubs – igniting the interest in the game of golf and all it has to offer – benefits include health and fitness, mental resilience, friendships, and a sense of fairness and rules all whilst having Fun.

Clubs are our eyes and ears to emerging talent and we encourage all clubs to alert us to our future stars.
