Coaching Squad - national

Players in the National Squad are those who have been selected by England Golf to be a participant in one of their own coaching programmes. Players may be a member of one of the following squads:-

• The England Squad
  
• The England 'A' Squad
  
• The England Under 18 Squad
  
• The England Under 16 Squad (South West)
  
• The England AASE Programme (Advanced Apprenticeship in Sporting Excellence)
  

In these instances, the GGU delegates the administration of each individuals coaching programme to the Squad Managers and Lead Coaches of the respective squads for each player. We may however provide financial assistance to players in these squads to maximise the opportunity for players to progress, and fulfil their golfing aspirations. These awards are decided upon on a case by case basis in consultation with the England Golf Management Team.
