In dozens of primary and secondary schools, they teach daily, using material donated by the ADGE (Educational Golf Association) on local football or rugby pitches and encourage their puils to discover the game of golf.
They play with a 35% of the weight of standard golf balls. Offering a third of the distance yet with similar trajectories to that of a real golf ball and bearing in mind our responsibility concerning security. This kind of ball complies with all safety requirements with respect to players and people walking around..
