AFRIYEA Golf Academy, a junior golf development program in Uganda, has announced the launch of its Mentorship Program 2025.
This initiative is designed to empower young golfers from underprivileged backgrounds by connecting them with experienced industry mentors.
The program seeks to provide a platform for young talent to gain invaluable insights, build professional networks, and overcome barriers to entry in the sport, fostering greater diversity and inclusion within the global golfing community.
Opportunities for Aspiring Golfers
The academy, which integrates golf training with life skills and environmental education, has developed the mentorship program to pair mentees with mentors based on their career goals and personal aspirations.
“Our intention for this mentorship program is to open up a world of opportunities for the golf industry to connect, share experiences, and provide career guidance while encouraging cultural exchange and diversity,” said Isaiah Mwesige, Chief Executive Officer of the AFRIYEA Golf Academy.
“Through this program, young people will be equipped with the knowledge, skills, and connections they need to excel both on and off the course, shaping them into future leaders of the sport and their communities.” he added.
Mentees will benefit from:
Personalized guidance from industry professionals.
Opportunities to network with global leaders in golf.
Exposure to experiences and opportunities beyond their local communities.
