The Home Hill Golf Club’s Ladies’ Sip ‘n Putt sessions were the brainchild of Club Secretary Megan Barbagallo. After securing funding from the Queensland Government’s “Active Women and Girls Program,” the club aimed to increase female participation in golf, and developed a ladies’ only series of events which began on Saturday 20 July. The Sip ‘n Putt concept encourages women to try the sport for the first time by highlighting the fun, social, and exercise aspects, plus the bonus of a free beverage!
The inaugural Ladies’ Sip ‘n Putt on Saturday 20 July was a great success, with nine women joining PGA Professional Tara Jenkins for basic golf drills, socialising, and a fun gathering afterward. The positive feedback has all the attendees eager to return to the green at the Home Hill Golf Club, and many are planning to bring a friend along to the next session.
The upcoming session on 17 August will cover grip and swing basics, ensuring new participants can catch up quickly, with the second half set to focus on chipping and putting around the green, followed by another spectacular social session.
Ladies interested in trying golf are invited to join the fun at Home Hill Golf Club on Saturday, 17 August at 3:30 pm… and remember, golfers live longer!
