3 GOLF QUÉBEC S SPORT DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM Golf Québec s Sport Development Program is sub-divided into several initiatives enabling young golf fans to develop their skills in a stimulating environment. Many programs are offered in various supervised settings including the Golf in Schools, Golfmobile, CN Future Links, First Drive, She Swings, She Scores as well as Junior Golf Development Centres (CGDC). In terms of events, our Introduction to Competition Tours (ICT) and Regional Junior Tours (RJT) provide children with the opportunity to learn to play golf in compliance with the rules in a friendly yet competitive context. Through the Golf in Schools program, students of almost 600 elementary schools and high schools are introduced to the game of golf in their Phys. Ed. Classes and over 40 golf clubs are using the CN Future Links program. Through these initiatives, Golf Québec promotes the interest of children to participate in a sport activity and contributes to reducing the dropout rate while shaping golf s future and developing new participants.
