Kate Marsden

Kate Marsden, a talented 14-year-old golfer who participates in a grantee program at Makefield Highlands Golf Club, attended WGGB’s 2023 Annual Tournament in June. She participated in the morning five-hole outing with girls from other programs and played in the afternoon tournament with more experienced female mentees. She graciously shared her thoughts with us on the experience: “While I met several incredible mentors during the event, I connected particularly well with two experienced golfers, Erin Martin and Courtney Curcio from PGA REACH. They shared similar playing styles and spent time discussing various techniques and strategies with me. It was a full day of golfing, fun and learning!I learned about various aspects of the game, including refining my swing technique, improving my putting skills, and understanding the importance of mental focus during a round of golf. Moreover, I gained insights into the etiquette and sportsmanship that embody the spirit of the game."
