Get Golf Ready

Get Golf Ready is designed to teach everything you’ll need to play golf in just a few lessons. EWGA Chapters coordinate with PGA and LPGA Professionals to link EWGA members who are new golfers to a Get Golf Ready clinic in their area. In addition, EWGA is the next step for women who complete the 5 sessions - to help them move from the lesson tee to the golf course in a casual, friendly setting. Here is what Get Golf Ready sessions will cover:

• The Hole is the Goal – How to get around the club house, social benefits, what to wear, the difference in golf clubs, putting
• Getting it Close – Stretching and wellness tips; how to hold the club; chipping and pitching; caring for the course
• Swing, Swing, Swing – The full swing; using your irons; learning the lingo
• Driving School – Hitting long shots; Tee It Forward; helpful short cuts
• Ready, Set…Go Golf – Playing the first few holes; tips for playing in groups; driving the cart; review of the rules

Fairway Friends ®

Fairway Friends® is a mentoring program available to all EWGA members through a variety of events and experiences hosted by EWGA Chapters. Experienced golfers partner with new golfers to help them feel comfortable on the golf course. Fairway Friends® is what the EWGA is all about – helping women enter the game of golf in a fun, supportive environment.

• A Mentor is experienced, but not necessarily a good golfer, who guides new golfers on pace of play, basic rules and proper etiquette on and off the course. A Mentor may also guide new members on how to participate in other EWGA events.
• A Mentee is someone who is making the transition from instruction to playing on a golf course. The Fairway Friends® program helps them learn the nuances of the game in order to build confidence and comfort in the golf course setting.
