Usha International Limited, one of India's leading household consumer durable brands, has been associated with the Junior Training Programme (JTP) of the Delhi Golf Club since 2006 with the aim of introducing golf to youngsters.

The prgramme, targetting age groups of 8 and 17 years, is aimed at discovering and nurturing talented juniors. This year's JTP is slated between May 15 and June 23.

The 31st edition of the JTP is divided into four camps (each of 10 day duration) starting May 15, May 25, June 4 and June 14, respectively.

Under the guidance of well-known A Category coaches, Vikram Sethi, Nonita Lall Qureshi, Anjali Chopra and Jasjit Singh, every participating kid will be trained on the basics of the sport.
 

As per their ability and knowledge about the game, camps are divided into three levels of ability - advanced, intermediate and beginners.

"The success and popularity of this template has given rise to many similar programmes across the country. Designed to introduce children to the game of golf, as well as attract those who do not otherwise have access to a golf course, this programme is open to both members' children as well as non- members.
