Northumberland Golf Partnership is also helping to develop golf within the county by supporting golf clubs, players, coaches and volunteers.
Many golf clubs have been able to offer free golf coaching taster sessions for a number of years through their relationship with the EGU and EWGA and have introduced thousands of beginners to golf and golf clubs. It is one of several initiatives jointly provided by the EGU and EWGA via England Golf's Whole Sport Plan for golf and is an integral part of England Golf's vision to grow the game.
