When will it happen and how will it work?
In a nutshell we will use the games lesson time to take pupils to Hull Golf Club where they will be coached by the club professionals and get the opportunity to play the course. Transport to and from the course as well as necessary equipment (unless they have their own) will be organised.
The programme will also be available for pupils in Years 11, 12 and 13 to take advantage on during their Wednesday afternoon games lesson 14:00 - 16:00.
Pupils may wish to dip in and out of the Golf coaching according to the sports being played/taught during that term.
Flexible coaching sessions for years 12 and 13
The partnership will also allow year 12 & 13 pupils to use their free periods to book and attend extra coaching sessions at their discounted price. However please note that no transport will be arranged for these extra sessions and pupils/players wishing to go down and have any one off coaching sessions must arrange, book and pay for this directly with the club.
Competitions
Tranby PE Department will also be working closely with Hull Golf Club to facilitate opportunities to host and attend inter school competitions/fixtures as well as taking some of the younger pupils to try the game.
- ISA National Golf Championships.
- Yorkshire Schools Championship (currently held at Malton – run by Kevin Hughes)
- Parents, pupils (past and present), staff and friends of the school fun Open Comp plus meal

The termly breakdown of coaching in games lesson time
Please note the weeks/time is worked out around the normal school interruptions of exam weeks, PSHCE days etc.
Pupils may wish to dip in and out of the Golf coaching according to the sports being played/taught during that term. If this is the case then the following formula can be applied – Hull Golf Club member ship fee + the number of terms wishing to. So that the school and the Golf Club can plan pupils must inform the PE Department in advance which terms they will be taking golf.
