Skipton Golf Club Juniors

The English Golf Union and English Women's Golf Association launched the Junior Golf Mark Award in 2003 as an accreditation scheme for junior friendly facilities, assessing clubs on the following three areas:

- Coaching and playing
- Club environment
- Child protection and duty of care

300 golf clubs have now received this prestigious award in recognition of their commitment to junior golf.

The Golf Mark Award is for the provision of high quality services to junior golfers in terms of coaching, child protection and equality of opportunity, enabling boys and girls of any age and ability to participate in golf.
Golf clubs marked with are recognised by the EGU/ELGA as High Achiever facilities. These golf clubs have met additional conditions over and above those minimum standards required for GolfMark.

The EGU/ELGA are pleased to advise that Skipton Golf Club has reached the required level and is recognised as a High Achiever Facility and at present Skipton Golf Club is one of only eight clubs in Yorkshire to have achieved this award.
