GOLF LESSON FOR KIDS

17 June 2005

Nearly 100 pupils from schools across Swansea will get the chance to try their hand at golf in the first event of its kind on Monday.

They will be heading for Gower Golf Club, which is linking up with Swansea Council's sports development officers and Gorseinon College for the first Tri Golf Festival.

Six schools will take part in the non-competitive mini-golf festival which starts at 10am. Council sports development officer Steve Lancey said: "Not many young people have the opportunity to play golf, especially at a first-class course so this is a really good opportunity for them to have a go".

"Hopefully, the young people will enjoy the experience and go along to the golf club regularly.It will also be a good experience for the golf academy students to demonstrate their coaching skills after completing the Tri Golf course.

"Hopefully, this will be the first of many tri-golf festivals to be
run across the city."
