Better-known as SNAG, the programme includes all the basics of golf, helping to teach beginners and build-up their skills. SNAG has become popular globally, due to the fact that it can be played both indoors and outdoors, ensuring anyone can learn and anyone can playgolf.<\/p>\n<p>In partnership with Golf Saudi, the SNAG equipment will support the club\u2019s\u201cRoyal Stars Junior Program\u201d, which will feature a host of new activities to encourage young boys and girls to pick-up a golf club for the first time. Commenting on the partnership with Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country club, <strong>Bouchaib El Jadiani,Head of Mass Participation &amp; National Teamsat Golf Saudi<\/strong>, said: \u201cWe have identified SNAG as a successful pathway for youngsters to gain an interest in golf. The priority of our Mass Participation program is to introduce golf at a grass roots level, to non-golfing Saudi Arabian children.<\/p>\n<p>El Jadiani continued: \u201cWe are therefore delighted to support PGA Professional Michiel De Wet and his team of coaches at Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country Club with this equipment. We look forward to announcing a series of new classes through our \u201cLet it Fly\u201d program soon, which provides pupils from government funded schools and universities the chance to try golf for the very first time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>SNAG is the brainchild of former US PGA Tour professional Terry Anton and the programme ensures golf is easy to learn, thanks to its colourful, portable and very easy to use equipment, as well as having the game\u2019s rules explained in a simple fashion. There has never been a system dedicated to the development of new players that is both easy to teach and learn, until SNAG. Since its rollout across the Kingdom, the program has become a proven learning and training system and continues to grow under Golf Saudi\u2019s guidance.<\/p>\n<p>Golf Saudi\u2019s growing SNAG program continues to expand with adults too, who are also eligible to participate with the various initiatives that Golf Saudi is currently overseeing in order to encourage their participation in the game. One such example was the \u201cLadies First Club\u201d which was inspired by the 2020 debut Aramco Saudi Ladies International presented by PIF \u2013 the Kingdom\u2019s first ever professional women\u2019s golf tournament. Scores of women across the country registered to learn golf for the first time, with over 1,000 ladies signing-up in the initiative\u2019s first four days. All active participants have been using SNAG equipment since they signed-up in order to learn more about the game and further their own development. The Ladies First Club has been successful in terms of bringing more Saudi women into golf, aligning with the Kingdom\u2019s wider ambitions under Vision 2030, which aims to get more Saudis regularly active.<\/p>\n<p>Coaches, golf club staff and physical education teachers are all now involved and working with Golf Saudi in order to create a nationwide networkof knowledgeable, skilled grass roots coaches, which isin turn adding and improving Golf Saudi\u2019s Mass Participation program, one of the organisation\u2019s six major pillars.<\/p>\n<p>For further information Golf Saudi, please visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.golfsaudi.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">www.golfsaudi.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-53454\" src=\"https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Receives-SNAG-Equipment-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Receives-SNAG-Equipment-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Receives-SNAG-Equipment-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Receives-SNAG-Equipment-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Receives-SNAG-Equipment-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-53455\" src=\"https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Ready-For-Aramco-Saudi-Ladies-International-presented-by-PIF-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Ready-For-Aramco-Saudi-Ladies-International-presented-by-PIF-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Ready-For-Aramco-Saudi-Ladies-International-presented-by-PIF-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Ready-For-Aramco-Saudi-Ladies-International-presented-by-PIF-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.middleeastevents.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/Royal-Greens-Ready-For-Aramco-Saudi-Ladies-International-presented-by-PIF-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before the start of this Thursday\u2019s Aramco Saudi Ladies International presented by PIF, Royal Greens Golf &amp; Country Club took delivery of the latest generation of Starting New At Golf equipment, as part of Golf Saudi\u2019s plans to use the tournament to attract juniors to the game.
