Golf is better with someone beside you.

WAWT women are ready to golf. Because diversity matters to Edmonton's golf scene, Her Legacy Golf is the perfect starting point.

WAWT is excited to build Her Legacy Golf, and we need your support to make it happen. As we work toward inviting the wider Edmonton golfing community to an annual tournament, we are building an active foundation of Her Legacy Golf players today. This fundraiser is what makes that possible.

12 Women. 12 Weeks.
One extraordinary journey of confidence, connection, and community.

The Her Legacy Golf Program

A structured, beginner-friendly 12-week season that takes women from their very first swing to confident, course-ready golfers, in three phases.

Phase 1 · Learn

Driving Range Lessons

Professional group instruction on grip, stance, and swing basics. No course play yet, just building confidence one swing at a time.

Phase 2 · Transition

First Rounds on Course

A warm-up lesson each week followed by 9 holes on the course. These are first real rounds in small groups, focused on etiquette and pace of play.

Phase 3 · Play

League Play & Celebration

Structured weekly formats including scramble, best ball, and stroke play, plus a guest invite round and a closing celebration to mark what they have built.

Our 3-Year Strategy

Her Legacy Golf Fundraiser is the first step to creating an annual, city-wide golf tournament that helps build WAWT's legacy of inclusion by welcoming all of Edmonton to play with us.
