The 'Ready, Set, Golf' grassroots program aims to introduce the game to a larger audience and foster quality time for families.
Lorena Suarez and her son Abram were at a driving range on a rainy Wednesday afternoon, where they took part in the launching of "Ready, Set, Golf" a grassroots program by the National Golf Association of the Philippines ."It's helpful for the beginners as well so they will know the basic and the hard training ng golfer," she said.
"Global studies have been done that when mothers play the families play as well," Floro said. "And you know as our primary mandate is not just about medals, medals, medals but it's really to grow the game we have to ensure that the next generation and the generation after that they become golfers." "Right now, it's limited to mothers and their children. The reason why we wanted mothers and their children is because it's a more nurturing environment all in all kids really find it comforting when they learn new activities with their mothers," she said.
"We get to identify kids with natural abilities for golf and with this program we really have to bridge the gap between beginner golf and elite amateur golf," Romulo said.
