Youth on target at country club
Adding to this success, Mount Edgecombe Country Club (MECC) recently hosted for the first time ever Target36, a revolutionary on-course golf programme for kids.
MOUNT Edgecombe Country Club’s youth division is flourishing with the recent announcements of members Akhil and Kairav Maduray selected to play for the KZN U13 side. While 16-year-old Amy Fletcher was chosen as the reserve for the KZN Ladies Open side.
Adding to this success, Mount Edgecombe Country Club (MECC) recently hosted for the first time ever Target36, a revolutionary on-course golf programme for kids that is systematically changing how children learn to play golf. The first session of this national programme held at MECC, which is the latest vehicle used to grow golf in children between the ages of 6 and 13 years old, was a resounding success.
“As one of the most progressive, forward thinking country clubs and golfing residential estates in the country, we firmly believe that growing the game of golf needs to start at grass roots level. We immediately saw what a result driven and unique programme it is and that it paves the way for children to work their way up easily to a golf club member,” said Desiree Stone, CEO of Mount Edgecombe Country Club Estate.
