Gauteng Women in Insurance hosted a golf masterclass, 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, improve their game, make connections with other professionals and have fun on the golf course.
Order of events
The day began with a warm welcome from the GWII President, Kyndra Robertson, who also acknowledged key sponsors and introduced VIPs. Afterwards, the ladies were grouped with golf pros and some of GWII’s proficient golfers to assist the newcomers. A variety of fun golf activities followed, including chipping, putting, and driving challenges.
After freshening up, everyone moved to Hotshots for food and socialising, which was followed by the much-anticipated Hotshots competition and an exciting lucky draw. The evening concluded with relaxed networking among attendees.
