CALGARY, AB – On June 23, 11 girls between the ages of 7-18 from Calgary and surrounding area, joined our team of professionals and learned the game of golf at Redwood Meadows Golf Course.

Our Indigenous Girls Golf day is dedicated to empowering young Indigenous girls who are ready to step onto the green and discover the many benefits that golf has to offer. This event highlights the physical, mental, and social advantages of the sport, while fostering a supportive environment for growth.

Our mission is to build confidence, self-esteem, and leadership skills among Indigenous girls across the province. Through mentorship and inspiration from accomplished Indigenous golf instructors, we aim to empower the next generation with skills that extend beyond the game.

Impact Grows When We Collaborate

Healthy Horizons made a generous investment to ensure young people have access to sport and proper equipment. Sport Central continues to steward those resources and place gear directly into the hands of kids who need it most. We helped bridge that connection in the community so everyone involved could be recognized and celebrated.
