Is Golf Still a Top Sport in Children’s Eyes?
Over the years there has been a big decline in young people learning new things especially sports like golf. what is the reason on why this is all going on? It certainly isn’t down to kids not wanting to use the electric golf trolleys.
One of the major reasons a lot of young people do not wish to take up the sport is the fact that their dad plays it every other day. It can also be said that if a youngster is going to play golf they are bound to be picked on if they are seen wearing some of the outfits golfers have to wear on some of the courses. As far as I remember the kids at my school that played golf (and there weren't many) were only friends with the other kids that played golf.
Why is it that golf is seen as a old mans sport and not seen like football, tennis, rugby and all the other high profile sports. Golf itself is a high profile sport its just no one of a young age is that interested. To a certain extent this is untrue as I know an 8yr old boy who loves the game and plays it every Saturday. The only problem is ge wishes to play football and go to gardening club rather than play golf. How can gardening be better than playing a round of golf I mean really? Is it that children find the game boring and a bit strange? To me I have never liked watching or playing the sport but I can certainly see why it is liked so much.
In my honest opinion I think kids would benefit from playing golf than they would most other sports. The players behaviour in golf is great compared to those of other sports which is brilliant for the kids who play the sport as it can teach them how to play a sport in the right way. Golf itself only pays out to the players who play in the tournaments so I can see how could be see to deter people who want to earn the money every week like the footballers but in my honest opinion it takes a lot more skill to play golf than it does football.
So charge up those golf batteries kids and get playing!
