THE future of women's golf and fitness has come to Gympie and soon will be rolled out in Gympie.

Swing Fit is Australian golf's national female participation program which aims to increase engagement in the game.

It is an innovative golf health, fitness and skill development program that has socialisation, conditioning and game-based learning at its core.

The fundamental goals for the participants are that golf becomes more welcoming and fun, in a relaxed environment, to tackle fears about the sport - while also opening up the opportunity for success at the game, surrounded by like-minded people.

Participants learn and experience the basic golf swing and putting action, with opportunities to have fun and get their whole body moving through golf-specific conditioning and movement activities.

It is for women of all ages and abilities, with programs for new and existing golfers, delivered by accredited coaches.

The feedback and enthusiasm from the pilot program has been fantastic and better than imagined.

I am extremely excited to be rolling out the program at the Gympie Golf Club and engaging more women in the game

Swing Fit programs will begin at Gympie Golf Club this week, with programs on Wednesday afternoons and Sunday mornings
