Palheiro Golf Summer Academy 2010

Following the exciting experience that took place at Palheiro Golf in the summer of 2009 the junior holiday programme is back again this year, bursting with action.

The programme will run Monday through Friday, mornings only, for 2-week periods from June 28th to September 3rd, with golf activities and a whole lot besides. Juniors of all levels of ability and/or expertise may participate, aged 6 to 18. Last year over 50 youngsters took part in this programme, including 12 non-residents, most of whom were children of Madeirans living in Britain.

For the grand finale, a closing tournament will take place on the last day, September 3rd. All the youngsters that participated in the 2009 programme will be invited to play and get in a fair fight for the 2010 edition of the Holiday Open Cup.

Last year’s champion was Gonçalo Araújo from Funchal. After taking part in the Palheiro Holiday Golf Programme and getting his first taste of the game last summer, Gonçalo joined the Palheiro Golf Academy. Almost one year later, at 14 years of age, he is one of the Academy’s most consistent players with a 24 Handicap.

Calling all youngsters: Come and participate in this great summer golf party!
