A new golf community set up to support beginners and higher handicap players is to launch at an inclusive event in North Yorkshire.
The 26+ Club, founded by Heidi Sowrey, aims to create a supportive space for golfers who may feel out of place at more competitive events.
Its launch event will take place on Saturday, August 30 at Tadcaster Golf Club.
Heidi Sowrey, founder of The 26+ Club, said: "As someone who's still fairly new to golf myself, I've experienced first-hand how intimidating the sport can feel.
"There are so many brilliant people in golf, but it can still be difficult to find events where you feel like you truly belong if you're not a low-handicap player.
"That's exactly why I started The 26+ Club."
More than 70 golfers are expected to take part in the relaxed, friendly day, which promises golf, light-hearted challenges, prizes, and plenty of laughter.
Ms Sowrey said: "The focus isn't on who shoots the lowest score, it's about bringing people together, building confidence and showing that golf really is a game for everyone."
The 26+ Club is designed to offer a welcoming environment for players with handicaps of 26 and above, with opportunities to meet others, gain experience, and enjoy the game without pressure.
The event will also include challenges and activities.
