Hi all
First time poster here - I've recently become guardian to two very promising young golfers. They're aged 13 and 7. The older plays off 8.5 - the younger doesn't have a handicap yet, by all accounts he's pretty talented and has just won a couple of competitions within his age category.
Unfortunately, I have absolutely no talent for ball sports and therefore am pretty clueless when it comes to nuturing the lads' interest and talent.
They both play regularly and I'm happy to invest time and money in fees, taking them, watching etc. However, the older boy is particularly committed and wants to make the grade - whilst I'm not in the least bit pushy, I obviosuly want to support him in this.
I would very much appreciate some guidance on what I should be doing to help their development, from coaching, competitions entries etc etc.
Many thanks in advance
