National Golf Schools Program Expands Across Argentina – Investing in Future Talent

Argentina is poised to see a significant boost in its junior golf scene with the launch of a comprehensive, nationwide program aimed at professionalizing minors schools and cultivating a thriving base of young players. This initiative, spearheaded by the Argentine Association of Golf (AAG), the Professional Golfers’ Association (PGA), and the Federation Golf (FG), offers a completely free opportunity for golf schools across the country to elevate their operations.

A Free Investment in Youth Golf Development

The National Golf Schools program for minors represents a pivotal step in supporting the long-term growth of golf in Argentina.

“It is a free and free guided program, which seeks to optimize the operation of minors schools, with the assistance of trained professionals in the field and through different stages that will lead to strengthening the base of players of our country, with the sole intention that golf grows and its virtues will be exploited,”

explains a key representative involved in the program’s implementation.

This program’s core principle revolves around establishing clear operational parameters and measurable metrics, allowing schools to objectively assess their performance and identify areas for improvement. The goal is to ensure every institution is equipped to provide the highest quality instruction and foster a supportive environment for young golfers.

• Comprehensive Coverage: The program extends to all golf schools nationwide, eliminating any financial barriers to participation.
• Free Support: Initial surveys, PGA training for school staff, and consultancy services are all included at no cost to the schools.
• Structured Development: Participants must successfully navigate five stages to fully benefit from the program:

“The formation of more active players, the growth of partners and the loyalty of families linked to the club, the sense of belonging and the creation of more and better minor competences, are just some of the benefits that are generated from the correct administration of a minors school,”

highlights the program’s impact on the overall golfing community.
