R&A Women on Golf Charter
Nudgee Golf Club signed the R&A Women in Golf Charter, becoming another leading Queensland Club to acknowledge women’s contributions playing, leading or working in golf. This commitment will further extend our focus on women and girls so they can maximise their potential at all levels of the sport.
The Club has worked with Golf Australia to develop a Women and Girl’s Engagement Plan and this document will compliment our Strategic Plan 2023-2030. Click here to read our Women and Girl’s Engagement Plan.
Nudgee GC has been committed to equality, with the ability to already achieve items such as, equal playing rights, membership, championship/event prizes and female board member all are requirements of the Charter.
We are working with Golf Australia to ensure that golf is a sport where women and girls are inspired to participate, feel welcomed, valued and empowered to achieve their goals.
‘Congratulations on becoming a signatory to the R&A Women in Golf Charter. Australian Golf salutes you for your courage, your foresight and your commitment to equal opportunity in the game’ – James Sutherland CEO of Golf Australia.
We also support Golf Australia’s Women and Girl’s Engagement Plan: The Future of Women & Girls in Golf (formerly Vision 2025) and participate in national initiatives.
The Women and Girl’s Engagement Plan is playing a critical role in increasing leadership & participation in golf in Australia through five key areas of the game, that align to Australian Golf’s National Strategy:
- Telling our story better
- Attracting new Golfers
- Increasing our Core
- Attracting New Fans and Growing Revenue
- Working together
Let’s all work together to get more girls and women both playing and working in golf!
