Gauteng Women in Insurance hosted a golf masterclass, on at the World of Golf aimed at non-golfers, to teach women the rules and fundamentals of the game and provide practical experience on the golf course.
The event included networking opportunities with industry experts and professional golfers and provided a unique opportunity for women in the insurance industry to learn a new skill.
The day began with a welcome by the GWII President, Catherine Albertyn, followed by the grouping of the ladies with the golf pros as well as some of GWII’s proficient golfers assisting the newbies. These ladies were (Charmaine Sneyd, Catherine Albertyn, Catherine Pienaar, Margaret Handy, Megan Brink, Nadia Gouws and Rianet Whitehead.
After activities, the participants then moved to Hotshots for food and socialising, followed by the Hotshots competition and lucky draw prizes.
This masterclass was not only a learning experience but also a fantastic opportunity for women to engage with peers, foster new professional relationships, and enjoy a day out on the golf course.
