Last week girls around the country began their Australian Golf Foundation (AGF) Girls Scholarship experience on the march to our goal of 1000 scholarship holders in 2023.

This scholarship experience comprises of:

• Full membership of the clubs’ facilities for one year

• 24-weeks of professional group tuition

• AGF branded uniform

• Opportunity to meet other like-minded girl golfers and form friendships for life

Such an opportunity for girls would not exist without the support of its many generous benefactors and the golf industry.

Director of the Australian Golf Foundation, Bonnie Boezeman AO who founded the program is excited for the year ahead and offers these words of encouragement and gratitude …

To our 2023 scholarship recipients …

“This will be an amazing year for all of you scholars. A year of fun, meeting new friends, learning about golf, and playing on your beautiful golf course. So, enjoy every minute, the year goes by quickly!”

To our 2023 scholarship clubs and deliverers …

“Enjoy having young, eager junior girls be part of your female membership. It is a wonderful opportunity for the club and the professional teachers to see them develop before your eyes and encourage them to play for life.”

To our supporters …

“Our sincere thank you, you are making many dreams come true and are helping to change the landscape of golf for women and girls.”
