The club has teamed up with local schools Sacred Heart College and Yarrawonga P-12 College to support student education and encourage the great sport of golf.
“These scholarships will assist students and their families in meeting the financial needs required to continue secondary education, while encouraging an active lifestyle,” club president Gil Cunningham said.
“Scholarships are available for students from Year 7 through to Year 12. Eligibility for scholarships is generally based on a student’s academic participation, their involvement in school and community activities, and a willingness to regularly participate in golf.”
In the first year of the program, YMGCR is sponsoring three local students, Joseph Lee-Conway and Oliver Ridley from Sacred Heart College and Lachlan Bosch from Yarrawonga P-12 College.
Each student will receive $500 from Yarra Golf and play 10 competition games during the next 12 months and appreciate the scholarship.
The team at Yarra Golf looks forward to seeing the boys at the club and wish them good golfing.
