Joe Feather, PGA Professional and Leadbetter Instructor at Leeds Gold Centre, explains; “We want to make golf a more accessible sport to beginners and those considering taking up a new interest. We believe our first class facilities make for an ideal environment to learn the game of golf and we’re putting our expertise to the test by demonstrating just what can be achieved under the tuition of our Leadbetter Golf Academy instructors”.

The chosen 16 beginners will receive an hour of tuition, completely free, twice a week over an 8 week period throughout July and August, culminating in a three-hole knockout event, taking place on Sunday 11th September at Leeds Golf Centre where they will showcase their finely tuned professional swing.
