How have you impacted on the younger ones with such dexterity you possess?
Thank you,Im not only playing the golf,but I’m also an instructor with the famous Lamingo gold club,I have impacted immensely in the lives of my people through the game of the golf.
When we started playing the game there was no place for training and our people,being the host Community,were not benefiting anything from the golf club.
I then established what’s known as an Academy in other to train our Youths and other interested members of the society to engage in training and learn how to play the game of golf. against the the believes that the game of golf is only for the rich people.
I established the Academy in collaboration with other professionals golfers and we enrol people free what you need to do is to register with us and we have coaches that trains the learners.
We do send them for various competitions and tournaments in different States of the federation and that affords them the opportunity to interact with other golfers.
As I’m talking to you,we just returned from IBB Golf and Country Club,Abuja for a tournament,three of our boys from the Academy made us proud,one of them won the sum of seven hundred thousand naira while the other two won three hundred thousand naira each and the money is meant for them not for us at the Academy
What we are doing is to engaged our Youths in order to curb social vices and restiveness among our them.
I have equally secured jobs for our Youths within and outside the club.
