| Abstract/Contents: | Suggests that "greenkeepers throughout the UK [United Kingdom] and Europe are not being taught the skills necessary to excel. The IGA [Independent Greenkeepers Association]...is filling the educational need that the British and International Golf Greenkeepers Association (BIGGA) is not." States that "greenkeepers in the UK and Europe need to follow the lead of their counterparts in the United States and pursue education." Mentions that "there are some who view the IGA as unnecessary and that BIGGA is, in fact, furthering the goals of greenkeepers and course managers." |
