Ryder Cup European Development Trust Fund
When the Ryder Cup was restructured in 2004 with the formation of Ryder Cup Europe LLP, in partnership between the European Tour (60%), the PGA (20%) and the PGAs of Europe (20%), one of the important outcomes was the formation of the Ryder Cup European Development Trust.
The purpose of this UK-registered charity is to ensure that a portion of the net profits accrued from the Matches is absorbed into the Trust, thereby allowing aid to be distributed by means of grants for grass root schemes throughout Europe.
The R&A Golf Development Programme
The ever-growing expansion of The Open Championship, as an annual multi-million income stream for the benefit of the world’s golfing community, has inspired many worthwhile initiatives, but none more far-reaching than the Golf Development Programme.
The close link between The R&A and the PGAs of Europe enables selected golf development consultants and tutors to travel to many outposts around the world where under-financed golfing bodies have appealed for help to establish a golfing culture and programme.
