The Golf Foundation is proud of its positive working relationship with a large number of organisations, both inside and outside the sport, and is extremely grateful for their support.
Through our ability to engage with young people-focused organisations outside of golf (such as Sport England, the Youth Sport Trust and StreetGames) the Golf Foundation continued to engage with young people and families who are new to the game, from all backgrounds. We are excited about the potential of reaching new audiences with new partners SportEd, LFC Foundation and Sporting Equals.
The Golf Foundation remains committed to ensuring that as many young people as possible are given the opportunity to experience golf at a golf club, receive PGA Professional coaching and develop a lifelong love of golf.
This has been made possible by excellent working relationships with key golfing organisations such as the Professional Golfers’ Association, England Golf, Wales Golf, Scottish Golf, the DP World Tour, Golf Club Managers Association and Ireland Golf. The Golf Foundation is an active member of the Golf Forum.
Our thanks go also to our main sponsor HSBC for their funding and support over the past 12 years. They have been excellent commercial partner and together we have introduced over 5 million young people to golf.
Our thanks to clothing partner FootJoy and golf ball partner, Titleist. Thanks also to our equipment and development partner, Golfway.
Funding and Support
In order to be able to undertake its work, the Golf Foundation relies heavily on donations, grants and practical support. In 2022/23, hundreds of organisations and individuals provided support which helped to fund the charity’s activities.
The Golf Foundation is hugely grateful to The R&A, which is currently investing £2 million over four years.
