Students and teachers from the Berbice Educational Institute (BEI) travelled to Georgetown on Friday for preparatory Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate (CSEC) golf training, highlighting the school’s continued commitment to the golf PE programme development.
A total of 26 students and three teachers departed Berbice at 05:00h to participate in a four-hour training session at the Nexgen Golf Academy. The session was led by Master Coach Aleem Hussain and LPGA Girls Site Director Philip Haynes, who provided hands-on instruction in club grip, shot-making, and putting, followed by a competitive team exercise.
Coach Aleem Hussain praised the students’ performance, noting that BEI – one of the pilot schools in the school golf programme – placed third in last year’s national golf championship and said that this year’s team shows strong potential for this year’s competition.
The visit follows a recent training session by Bush Lot Secondary School as part of ongoing youth golf development initiatives led by the Guyana Golf Association in partnership with Nexgen Golf Academy and the Westside Golf Course. The programme continues to expand participation in golf nationwide, particularly among young players and female athletes.
