Get into Golf Club Hire Fund - Guidelines

The cost of equipment is often cited as a barrier for new adults getting into golf. Many arrive at their Get Into Golf sessions with no clubs or clubs that are not really appropriate for them which can often hinder their enjoyment and development within the game. A perception also exists that golf club equipment is generally too expensive, which may deter some adults from trying out the sport in the first place. Inspired by an innovative Club Hire Scheme developed by Iain Butchart, Junior Convenor at Strathmore Golf Club, Scottish Golf has created a Club Hire Fund to encourage more people to take up golf by removing the cost barrier and ensuring they have access to appropriate equipment.
