National Golf Month will be back in May 2015 - targeting 100,000 lapsed and new golfers encouraging both women and men to get golfing through a host of promotions.

NGM presents focused coaching programmes offered by the Foremost Group PGA Professionals, other supporting PGA Professionals, Play Golf and Golf Club Open Days (covering a multitude of opportunities for new players to get on the course).

Paul McGinley, who needs no introduction is the National Golf Month men’s face of professional golf – alongside top lady professional Charley Hull. Paul said: “I am delighted to be supporting National Golf Month, May 2015. Golf faces many challenges in these times as competition with other sport and social activities intensifies. Golf is a game that has given me, and my family, great pleasure, health benefits and opportunities to meet some amazing people. I would encourage everybody to get behind this project as we endeavour to see more people enjoy the great benefits and fun that this game has to offer.”

NGM offers every golf club and PGA Professional free marketing through a Bauer Media radio and publications campaign. The campaign is designed to reach over 23 million of the golfing and non-golfing public.

‘Get a Friend Golfing in May’ will be the key message. Promotions will include special coaching /playing offers, unique golf club membership offers and Open Day deals.
