Fairway Friends™ is a mentoring program available to all EWGA members and is supported by program sponsor Be the Ball 4U.
In Fairway Friends™, experienced golfers partner with new golfers to help them feel comfortable on the golf course. Fairway Friends™ is what the EWGA is all about helping women enter the game of golf in a fun, supportive environment!
Who is a Fairway Friend™ Mentor?
A mentor is an experienced, but not necessarily good golfer who guides a new golfer on pace of play, basic rules and proper etiquette on and off the golf course. Also, a mentor may guide the new member on how to participate in other EWGA events.
Benefits of becoming a Mentor:
- Satisfaction and reward of helping a new golfer get hooked on this game we all love!
- Receive a ball marker and divot tool from program sponsor, Be the Ball 4U
- Chance to be randomly selected to win a gift for completing the program
Who is a Fairway Friend™ Mentee?
A mentee is someone making the transition from instruction to playing on a golf course. A mentee is paired with a mentor to guide them around the golf course safely and answer questions about etiquette, basic rules and the other nuances of the game in order to build confidence and comfort in the golf course setting.
Benefits of becoming a Mentee:
- Opportunity to learn from an experienced golfer on the golf course, and get more involved in the EWGA
- Opportunity to have a “buddy” to ask questions throughout the year
- Receive an accessories pouch from program sponsor, Be the Ball 4U
- Chance to be randomly selected to win a gift for completing the program
The Fairway Friends™ program runs from January 1 to October 31.
