Primary School Tri Golf Festival
About 120 children from Bexley's primary schools are to take part in a Tri-Golf
festival at Barnehurst
Golf Course, Mayplace Road East, Bexleyheath, on Monday,
21 May.
Using special child-friendly equipment they will take part in the Tri-Golf
-- 'Try Golf' -- competition on the practice area at the club. They will be
asked to negotiate everything from short hole putting to driving along a 50-yard
fairway between tee and hole.
Representatives of the club have been visiting the schools to introduce the
youngsters to the pleasures and frustrations of Tri Golf. The festival is being
co-ordinated with Bexley Council's Leisure Team and the Schools Sports Partnerships
and each child taking part will be awarded a certificate.
The Council-run Barnehurst Course, where the festival will take place, is
a very attractive nine-hole 'pay and play' golf course set in mature surroundings.
The course is open to all ages and abilities and you do not have to be a member
to enjoy a round of golf.

Course, on 01322 523746.
