As April marks the observance of Celebrate Diversity Month, it presents Golf Ontario with a wonderful opportunity to share inspiring stories and honour the diverse backgrounds and contributions of our members, volunteers, players, and colleagues.
Throughout the month, we aim to highlight stories showcasing diversity, focusing on our four Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) buckets of: Women, Youth, Indigenous, and Adaptive.
If any members of our community wish to share their own stories of diversity during the month of April, or to share personal experiences in and around the game of golf where diversity has played a positive role in that experience, feel free to tag us on social media @thegolfontario and use the hash tag #GolfForAll in the post.
Celebrate Diversity Month was first initiated in 2004 recognizing and honouring the diversity surrounding us all.
In alignment with Golf Ontario’s Strategic Plan, we are committed to intentionally developing and implementing initiatives to bring awareness and programming of EDI to our sport. The commitment to our EDI strategy is at the forefront of our ability to achieve our vision. We embrace the important role we play as one of the largest Amateur Golf Associations in the world in inspiring our sport and achieving our vision of Golf For All.
