As an avid golfer from an early age and the father of a sports-mad son, I’ve spent more than my fair share of time thinking about how we get kids into the game. Of course, I have a vested interest, but in a world of diminishing attention spans, understanding how sports can evolve to retain their interest is critical.
One of the things that always inspires my son is seeing top level sport in the flesh. Together, we’ve watched cricket at the Oval, football at various grounds from Premier to non-league and rugby at Twickenham. The two of us have both loved every minute of those experience. However, whereas these were loud and contained with around two hours of watch time, golf is a different beast.
