Get Into The S.W.I.N.G.
S.W.I.N.G. is a mentoring program available to all EWGA members and supported by our partners at Bette & Court and Wilson Golf.

In the S.W.I.N.G. program, experienced golfers team with newer golfers to help new golfers feel comfortable on the golf course. S.W.I.N.G. is what EWGA is all about-helping women enter the game of golf in a fun, supportive environment!

Interested in having a Mentor? The S.W.I.N.G. mentoring program offers an opportunity for a new golfer to have a "golfing buddy" to help make that transition from instruction to playing golf. This program is open to all member golfers, provided you've been through a basic level of golf instruction.

Interested in being a Mentor? Are you an experienced golfer who knows how to get around the golf course effectively, regardless of your golfing skill? A mentor is responsible for helping a new golfer get comfortable on the course and learn about basic rules, etiquette, pace of play and how to participate in EWGA!

Program runs from March 1 to September 30, 2007. Please see the Golf Education and Player Development page on www.ewga.com for more information or to register.
