An excellent crowd turned out to watch the event.. (News -Record photo) ,th sports the Seaforth greens by Carolanne Doig Once a year a week is denoted as junior golf week. This year junior golf week is from June 14 until June 22. Many events are planned by the Ontario Golf Association to help with - their programs for young golfers. Our club also haS th e thig planned'. Before going into this in more detail, we should take a look at our junior golfers and their part in .• the sport. Golf has been termed the "game of a lifetime - by the National Golf Foundation. This is very appropriate terminology since someone beginning golf at an early age can enjoy -die sport well into their senior years. The number of junior golfers has increased in the last few years. This is typical of most sports because of increased leisure time, interest ' in physical' fit- ness, and media exposure of the game. Many clubs now conduct events and programs aimed at' this young group of golfers. The clubs are well aware that these youngsters will form' the backbone of the • club when they become adults. Helping young golfers learn and enjoy the sport is an important aspect of a, successful golf club. Most young people take an interest in golf as a direct influence • from • family or friends. Usually a family influence will mean that the youngster will begin golfing at an earlier age, tha interest ste s .from friends who f. Many of . our w known- pofes. Offal- g dtte'r s began'golfing very young and were exposed to the game through their parents: It is important to realize that, as in other Sports, parents should never force the children =i? to golf, but definitely encourage them if the interest is there. In Seaforth, we have over 80 young golfers, and although very feW are girls, we hope that more girls will take up the game. Our junior boys enjoy reduced membership. ,rates w,ittch unlimited golillynng the season.' They, iare also junior members of the Ontario Golf Association, eligible to participate in its programs.
