Bothroyd is supporting Prostate Cancer UK’s Big Golf Race fundraising challenge this summer.
Former England striker Jay Bothroyd hopes swapping the penalty area for a new project on the fairway can help offer improved access to golf for young players and increase diversity participation levels.
Bothroyd – who is supporting Prostate Cancer UK’s Big Golf Race fundraising challenge this summer – now hosts a YouTube channel alongside PGA pro and coach Trey Niven, which looks to offer a new take around the sport and aims to break down any socio-economic barriers.“When we started the OuttaBoundz Show, we just wanted to be as inclusive as possible, to show whether you have the money or not, there is a place where you can have the opportunity to play,” Bothroyd told the PA news agency.
“It is about being able to give anyone the opportunity to play golf. We want to help create those as well.“Some people don’t have the money to go and buy clubs, so now we are working with organisations like the Golf Foundation where we are trying to help make that a possibility. “Coming from someone like me who grew up in the same area as these kids in Tottenham, it just shows them that the opportunities are there.! 🏌️Our students were introduced to golf through various exercises with the overall aim of using the sport to improve their well-being.🏌️One in eight men will get prostate cancer, a statistic which shortens to one in four for black men.
