What happens when all the age groups come together to witness the magic of Golf? The result is a heady mix of some ‘feel-good’ factor and a bountiful of raw energy.

 

It was heartening to see kid Golf lovers from Scottish High International School making a beeline to watch their fave players tee off. Ankita, one of the teachers, explained, “We have introduced Golf as a part of our curriculum and we encourage youngsters to try the sport. Our golf curriculum is focused on making the experience of golf for children fun and educational.”
