The Play Golf America scheme enjoyed another successful year in 2007 with 8.3 million people taking part in the programs, leagues and outings. Launched in 2004, the program aims to make golf accessible to a wider range of people and assist their development. Men and women of all ages are targeted by the scheme, which is set to enjoy its best year yet in 2008 with events throughout the year and an ever increasing number of new programs.
Amongst the main programs on offer in 2008 are the PGA Free Lesson Month in May, the American Express Womens Golf Month in June, followed by a Family Golf Month in July, which also sees a host of childrens programs on offer.
