Sport4All and Golf NSW Partner to Enhance Inclusivity in Golf

The Jack Newton Junior Golf Foundation (JNJG) is Golf NSW’s program partner for Junior players aged up to 18. In 2023, 60,185 rounds of junior golf were played, up 53% on the prior year.

JNJG plays a pivotal role in introducing young people to golf and nurturing their skills and enjoyment with tournaments, camps, clinics, and a strong emphasis on school programs.

Golf NSW has been actively involved in the NSW School Sport Unit Multi-Sport Days since 2021, offering 82 programs that introduced 10,971 students with various disabilities to the pastime.

In 2024, Golf NSW has committed to participating in 34 Multi-Sport Days across the state, furthering its mission of inclusivity.

Mark Ingrey, Senior Regional Manager – NSW for Golf NSW and JNJG, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership. “Our organisations are thrilled to partner with Sport4All, combining our shared commitment to inclusivity and community engagement.

Together, we are driving forward the mission to make golf accessible and enjoyable for everyone while fostering a more inclusive sporting environment across New South Wales and ACT.”

Jenny Crandell, Sport4All Acting State Manager NSW and ACT, added, “Our collaboration with Golf NSW is a significant step towards creating more inclusive sports communities.

By working together, we can break down barriers and provide greater opportunities for the 1.35 million people with disability in NSW to participate in golf, promoting physical activity, and social inclusion.”

This partnership represents a significant advancement in our efforts to make golf inclusive for all. Sport4All and Golf NSW are united in their commitment to creating a sporting environment that welcomes and supports everyone, regardless of physical ability or cultural identity.
