Abstract/Contents:Discusses three-time Open Champion Sir Henry Cotton's legacy and vision for the game of golf. States that "in 1952 he helped to establish the Golf Foundation to represent the youngsters who were to play the game, in and out of school, and to give them the opportunity to step on the bottom rungs of the ladder of golf." Notes that International Golf Development (IGD) creates short golf courses, that can be played by all, all weather and all year long. Highlights the Starting New at Golf (SNAG) coaching system that contains all the elements of golf in a modified form. Mentions that "Snag has enabled IGD to deliver golf coaching programmes [programs] to schools, groups and organisations [organizations] in inner cities to engage people of all ages and abilities and to introduce them to the game."
