The Ladies Golf Academy officially formed in 2018, as an effort to encourage more women to get involved in the sport, and is overseen by Ladies Captain, Gill Chilton.
“Out of the figure of 900 active members at Enville Golf Club, less than 10% are women.” Gill explains. “I think a lot of it is to do with the incredibly busy lifestyles that women lead – so they feel they haven’t got time for leisure, or to try something new.”
With the help of four other ladies in the team, alongside golf professional, Richard Copsey, the academy has been given the go-ahead to really kick-start the ladies academy and finally enable more women to discover this fantastic sport.
Membership offers countless opportunities to enjoy and grow, including 8 structured individual lessons and 8 group sessions throughout the year – all led by Enville’s golf professional. Academy members also receive advice and guidance by the club’s mentors, full use of clubhouse facilities and their extensive practice area, alongside vouchers for a total of 54 holes of golf.
One year of Ladies Academy membership is £360, and is available for all women over the age of 18.
