Schools can apply for funding through Sporting Schools that can be used to book a primary or secondary golf program. Schools can either select a teacher delivered, or coach delivered (either by accredited Community Instructors or PGA Professionals) program with the option of including MyGolf Equipment kits. Sporting Schools funding can also be used for professional development (online teacher training through the Community Instructor program) and transport to a local club/facility as part of the Sporting Schools program.
