Golf is a great opportunity for kids to get active and have fun. It also places them in an environment that teaches them how to get along with others, while being intro-

is no charge for the acad- emy,” said Robinson. Rona sponsors the full event for all participants. To carry the opportunity one step further, the program has also set aside 40 spots this season for the Big Brothers Big Sisters of Winnipeg and

Boys and Girls Clubs of Winnipeg. Registration requires only a phone call to Bridges (204-735-3000). Lessons will then be scheduled to fall on any two of the first three Saturdays in June. Robinson says the program and its spon- sor are inspired by one simple concept. “All kids should have a chance at golf.”

Larry Robinson, director of golf at Bridg- es, has a passion for the program, because it provides young players from all back- grounds with an easy introduction to the game. The participants don’t even need to come with gear. “We provide everything,” said Robinson.

The Academy runs with eight instructors and two time slots, to ensure the kids receive a fair amount of one-on-one attention. PHOTO CREDIT: Bridges Golf Course
