Coaching grant for Dunning

Dunning Golf Club, which joined forces with clubgolf this year, has been awarded a Coach Education Grant of £320 by Perth & Kinross Sports Council.

The grant, presented by Iain Brown from Perth & Kinross Sports Council, will pay the cost of training four of the Club’s Management Committee who participated in the clubgolf PGA Level 1 coaching course in May.

 

“We would like to express our thanks to Perth & Kinross Sports Council for this generous grant, and to Mr. Brown for taking the time to come and present it personally,” said Dunning’s Secretary, Dugald Cantlay

 

“We have a very enthusiastic junior section, which numbers 65 out of our total membership of 523 and we have great support from parents, grandparents, guardians, and our Visiting Professional.

 

“This, to us, represented the future of Dunning Golf Club, and so we agreed with Committee support, to undertake the PGA Level 1 Coaching Course.

 

“It proved to be e very enjoyable and rewarding experience, and though the two days were demanding, I think we are seeing the benefits at Club level already. I know my own golf has improved as a result!”
