Gareth Shaw, the Staffordshire County Golf Partnership development officer said “Golf offers an ideal opportunity to get out in the fresh air and enjoy some healthy exercise, while also enjoying the company of your fellow golfers.

“Any or all of these offers provide a fantastic pathway into the sport for those new to golf or returning to the sport and can be enjoyed in the company of players in a similar position.”

As part of a nationwide campaign, supported by the County Golf Partnership network, Get into golf opportunities include free or low-cost beginner courses with PGA professionals. They are a fun and sociable way to start golf – and a great way to make new friends.

Discounted lessons can cost as little as £25 for a five-week course.
