EOGA Steenberg
In the past month, EOGA has welcomed a new administrator assistant to help Jamie with all the ‘behind the scenes’ essential work to keep EOGA running smoothly. Welcome to the team Lauren Stemmet! Our offices are based at our Steenberg site so if you want to wish Lauren a warm welcome, this is where you’ll find her.
Vusi, our apprentice coach, is now also available to do coaching at Steenberg on Sundays. He is great for all beginners and junior golfers with a strength in short game coaching. For more information contact info@eoga.co.za or send Vusi a message at 061 268 6152.
Mandela Day is upon us and this year EOGA has been collecting all things golf. If you have any old golf shorts, shirts, shoes, caps or clubs, you can still donate them and bring them to our office. We will then distribute your previously loved items through our development groups and other golf initiative in Cape Town.
And this happened on Monday. Can you tell we are excited?
EOGA Erinvale
Both our coaches John and Murray have kept themselves busy with their weekly lessons until the end of the term before starting with the Juniors Holiday Clinic. John had a very exciting program planned over the course of 4 weeks. They played soccer golf - a game that makes use of skills like putting; they covered green reading, distance control and focus.
They had plenty of range time with balls on demand. They learned warm up stretches, a throwing challenge to repeat the correct movement pattern, tested out their swing and then finished off with a chipping game.
Their golf grew exponentially, all while having fun, plenty of exercise and fresh air! It beats a holiday in Mauritius, don't you think?

Some of these Juniors (5 to be exact) took part in their first ever competition at Arabella. After an hour warm up session on the driving range at Erinvale, the Juniors accompanied by John made their way to Arabella where André, our Arabella EOGA coach, addressed all the Juniors on the field. The Juniors were very well prepared and ready to have fun on the green. They did just that and can’t wait to take part in the next competition.
Thank you, Arabella, for a fun tournament!
EOGA Arabella
André had also prepared his Juniors for the competition organised by Arabella during the week with a two-day bootcamp. The Next Gen Golfer event called for any Juniors between the age of 5 and 12 and André was there to prep the kids and make sure that they enjoyed themselves throughout the process.
The event was closed with a prize giving and the Juniors were very proud of themselves!
