Run in co-operation with the SGU and SLGA the GIS Golf programme provides the area’s young male and female golfers with services and support to assist them in realising their full potential.

The athletes develop and improve their sport specific skills by working with their individual coaches as well as the coaches within the National Squad programmes. An important feature of the GIS programme is the strength and conditioning support given to each athlete which is integrated with physiotherapy support to ensure the most efficient swing mechanics.
