RECAP: Education on display at Kootenays Education Series

April 24, 2022

RICHMOND, BC (PGA of BC) - The Kootenays Education Series, hosted at the picturesque Fairmont Hot Springs Resort, was today’s platform for two incredible presentations from accomplished PGA of BC professionals. More than 20 professionals gathered to hear from Cindy Soukoroff, Professional at St. Eugene Golf Resort & Casino and Simon Jones, Head Professional at Purcell Golf.

Through Soukoroff’s presentation, attendees were able to learn about staffing strategies in the golf industry, especially for Kootenays clubs. Soukoroff focused on the challenges facing the unique Kootenays region. She also explained how both long-time and newer professionals can better align with the Association’s Career Advisory Program.

Soukoroff stressed the importance of inter-club collaboration. "Although situations are sometimes different, clubs coming together to share solutions helps us realize that many challenges are industry-wide. Working together to find new solutions to those challenges helps everyone."

To follow, Jones brought his expertise in teaching the next generation of golfers and explained how to implement and run a successful junior golf program.

“Junior golf schools should develop athletes first, create competitive golfers second and produce a love for the game of golf along the way,” said Jones.

Following the presentations, attendees teed off at the Riverside Golf Course located at Fairmont Hot Springs Resort. This marks the season’s first Kootenay Pro Tour event.

The PGA of BC thanks Foresight Sports Canada for their generous support of the Association’s Education Series. For more information, please contact Interim Executive Director Jared Siminoff at jared@pgabc.org.
