GIRLS GOLF HUB - Scottish Junior Golf

GIRLS' junior framework

GET INtO GOLF: GIRLS

What is the Girls Junior Framework?

A funded pathway for girls enter, stay, and thrive in golf

Our Vision for Girls’ Golf

The Girls Junior Framework sets out a clear, connected pathway to support golf clubs to attract, retain, and develop girls in ways
that reflect how they experience sport in real life.

The framework moves away from short-term, activity-led delivery and instead focuses on creating environments where girls feel they
belong and want to stay involved.

Scottish Golf has committed to grow female club membership to 38,000 by 2035. Within the ten-year period a sustained focus on junior
programmes and pathways will be key to delivering this – and other associated
targets – within the Women and Girls strategy.

What Do We Expect From Clubs?

Create a welcoming, inclusive environment where girls feel comfortable and valued

Cater for all ages, abilities, and stages of participation

Support girls to keep playing in ways that suit them (not one fixed pathway)

Commit to continuous learning, reflection, and improvement in how they deliver programmes

Work towards developing a Women & Girls Action Plan for long-term impact

In short:
