In this episode, Leighton is joined by England Golf regular Matt Draper, Laura Yapp (Junior Development Manager at England Golf), and Martin Crowder (Head of Development at The Golf Foundation) to explore the Junior Journey — a collaborative initiative between England Golf and The Golf Foundation.

Together, they discuss how the partnership is creating opportunities to inspire children and young people to play golf, nurturing a lifelong love for the game. The conversation delves into how clubs can:

• Support juniors to start — and stay — in golf • Build strong junior sections through workforce and volunteer development • Grow the game by encouraging more young people to take that first swing

From first lessons to club membership, this episode shines a light on how a united approach can create sustainable junior golf pathways across the UK. It also includes a wider discussion on Junior Golf at venues across the country
