We recently had a very positive meeting with Mr. Faulkner, Head of PE at Ilkley Grammar School, as a follow-up to the work we began prior to the summer holidays.
We’re excited to continue strengthening the school-club partnership with Ilkley Grammar School throughout the winter. This collaboration will involve coaching three different student groups, creating inclusive opportunities for pupils from all backgrounds. Our goal is to provide clear development pathways for both boys and girls, while supporting and expanding our already thriving junior section.
As part of the programme, we will be running two after-school classes:
- One group will continue from where we left off before the summer.
- The second group will be a performance squad, made up of students who represent Ilkley Grammar School on their golf teams.
We’re also proud to announce that we will be delivering a curriculum-based class as part of the school’s core PE programme, held on Friday afternoons throughout the winter. Some of these sessions may take place in our indoor golf studio, providing a high-quality coaching environment whatever the weather.
In addition to our work with the school, we’ll be introducing Saturday morning junior group tuition from October, open to current junior members as well as any friends or sons/daughters of members who would like to get involved.
Much of this exciting new work will be led by our new PGA Assistant Professional, Archie Rowntree, as he begins his PGA Training. This is a fantastic opportunity for Archie to develop his coaching skills and to start building his client base as a PGA Professional.
