 Women's Golf Sites, Contacts and Links You all know the web is great for finding interesting sites but surfing the web is sometimes not much fun and very time consuming. We want to put all the sites that you and other women golfers are interested to see in one place. We will be developing relationships with these sites and will highlight what the site is about and their key events. This will save you the time in going to sites to find out it is not what you are looking for. We cannot do this alone. We request suggestions from you for sites that you have found interesting and worthwhile.

There are clinics for beginners wanting to get into golf or those who want to improve their game and competitions of the more experienced players. Located in Melbourne, Kay organises events at various golf courses on weekends and twilight hours allowing working women the opportunity to play and complete with other like minded women golfers. Kay also organises tournaments through the year where you can play in a women's Pro AM with a number of women professionals. See coming events listed in Whats On.

IronLadies welcome any executive women, business or professional, to play golf in a fun and relaxed environment. Lets face it, golf can be very intimidating. However, it can also be a great business networking tool, to get to know other executive women, in a recreational environment. Further, in these events, you will also be helping the charities supported by the Iron Ladies. Find out more, by visiting the Iron Ladies web site. GolfHumour.com is the website of Kay Wall, Outlaw Golf author; magazine humour columnist/cartoonist and 1996 Fiji Ladies Open Golf Champion. Be entertained by the antics at Kay's site where you can order a copy of comic melodrama Outlaw Golf. Waihi Leader Review: You don't need to be a golfer to enjoy Kay Wall's recently published Outlaw Golf, but followers of the sport are sure to be snapping up copies. Former Waihi resident Kay Wall now lives near Wellington and has established herself as a writer, columnist and cartoonist. She is also a proficient golfer who plays off a 7 handicap. The winner of the senior women's championship of the Waihi Golf Club for 11 years in a row, Kay went on to win the Fiji Ladies Open championship in 1996. Kay writes for New Zealand Golf Update magazine and last year won the Mona Schreiber Prize for Humorous Fiction and Non-Fiction. The new book is a lighthearted look at the rules of this popular sport, with the author leading a winding path through a total of 36 holes - holes with names like Hidden Horrors, Holey Hell, Watery End, Upthuh Creek, Amen Corner, and Filled In. The easy-to-read paperback is published by the Writers Club Press and can be purchased online. Rachel McAlpine review: Funny - that's golf! This little novel would be a fine reward for golfers with a sense of humour, and the perfect remedy for golfers without one. That pretty much covers all golfers, I believe. The author is the Kapiti Coast's very own Kay Wall, graduate of the Whitireia Writing Programme, deadpan comedian and genuinely distinguished golfer. (And yes, she really did win the Fiji Ladies Open golf championship in 1996, for example, no joke.) Until now the only people able to enjoy Kay's wit have been readers of her column in the NZ Golf Update magazine. Now you too can sample her style at www.golfhumour.com - and in Outlaw Golf, available online. This book is fun. There's a plot, by the way, but it exists chiefly as a pretext for a string of gags. And why not? Kay Wall is capable of evolving into the Joe Bennett of golf. And that's high praise indeed. (Note the English spelling of humour in golfhumour.com. Everyone keeps wanting to leave the 'u' out, and the name using the American spelling belongs to someone else.)
