Introduction…The purpose of this unit is to introduce students to the sport of golf. Students will be
introduced to a variety of basic skills, concepts and aspects of golf (grip, stance,
swing, and some basic rule). After these skills, concepts and aspects are introduced
and practiced, the students will learn how to apply them in practical learning activities
During the most recent census conducted 2001 on the Victoria’s participation in
exercise, recreation and sport golf is the 5th most popular form of physical activity
amongst Victorians, 8.1% of the total population in Victoria (VicHealth, 2001). Golf is
played by both men and women so it is a suitable sport to have included in the
school curriculum as it has the ability to bring the best out of all students and is a true
lifelong sport for people of all fitness levels.

History… Beginning
The first game requiring a participant to hit a ball with a stick to a target in the
ground dates back to the 13th century in the Low Countries of Europe (Belgium,
Netherlands and Luxembourg). The modern game as we know it now originated in
Scotland in the early 15th century where the first ever golf club was established The
Honourable Company of Edinburgh Golfers at St Andrews, who are responsible for
the developing the rules which current day golf rules are derived from (Mallon, 2011).
Over the years the fundamentals of the game haven’t changed. One still strikes the
ball with a club in an effort to place the ball into the hole using the fewest amounts of
strokes.
Scottish Migrants brought Golf to Australia in the early 1800's, and in 1839
the first Australian Golf course was built in Tasmania. However the game of Golf was
played differently in all the different countries that it migrated to (Mallon, 2011).
Major Tournaments
In the men’s competition there are four prestigious annual golf tournaments in
the Professional Golfers Association (PGA) circuit. These 4 tournaments are usually
referred to as majors.
Masters Championship – Played at Augusta National Golf Club, Georgia.
An Australian has never won the Masters Championship
U.S Open Championship – Played in America. The last time an Australian
won the U.S Open was Geoff Ogilvy in 2006
British Open – Played in St Andrews, Scotland. The last time an
Australian won the British Open was Greg Norman in 1993
PGA Championship – Played in America. The last time an Australian won
the PGA Championship was Steve Elkington in 1995
Overall Australian golfers have won 15 majors combined. The most
successful of them is Greg Norman who won 2 British Open’s in 1986 and 1993
(Professional Golfers Association, 2011).
Olympics
The last time golf was featured at the Olympics was in 1904 in the United
States. As of 2016 golf will be reinstated as a sporting event during the Olympics,
which will involve a 72 hole match play event for both males and females (Little,
2009).

Current World Ranking
Martin Kaymer from Germany is the current world number 1 in men’s golf and
for women it is Yani Tseng from Taipei (British Broadcasting Corporation, 2011).

VELS and Student Outcomes:The following VELS have been addressed throughout the 4 lessons that constitute the unit. Being a year 10 group, all VELS are from level 6. When planning the unit, we have tried to incorporate a range of VELS from more than one learning domain:
VELS Specific outcomes for students
How will I know that the outcomes have been met?
HaPE - Students demonstrate proficiency in the execution of manipulative and movement skills during complex activities.
Students will be able to demonstrate a correct golf grip for each shot before the end of the less.
The teacher will observe the students at each of the different activities to determine if they have met the standard.
HaPE - Students will discuss sporting conduct, and implement fair play and good sporting behaviours.
Students will not cheat and will behave fairly whenever they are playing a competitive game where scores are being kept.
Observe the students over the duration of the unit and determine if all students were playing by the rules, not cheating and encouraging other students.
HaPE - Students will investigate community facilities available for health and physical fitness activities, engage in a variety of recreational and outdoor adventure activities, and develop skills, knowledge and behaviours for enhancing safe participation in these activities.
Students will behave and take advantage of the two out of school day excursions to improve their golf skills.
The students will participate in both excursions to a high standard. Will be polite to all instructors and try their best.
Communication – Students listen to speakers in a range of contexts, including the school and the wider community.
The students will be respectful and listen to their PE teacher and any other guest speakers that they may have over the duration of the unit.
If the students are always respectful and listen to their teacher and if the students give their full attention to guest teachers and do not talk while they are talking and follow all instructions.
Personal learning – Students develop their understanding of the value of persistence, by exploring the relationship between effort and performance, using both their own experiences and those of others
Students will work hard on their golf skills throughout the uni and will notice their improvement and continue to try harder towards their goals.
If the students try their best throughout all activities and acknowledge their successes.

Major rules Golf courses generally consist of nine or eighteen holes. The aim is to
complete the course in the minimum number of strokes. Players begin each hole by teeing off from between two markers. The tee-off area is usually an elevated piece of ground with short cut grass. From the tee, a green strip of short cut grass leads to the hole. This is called the fairway. On either side of the fairway is a stretch of long grass as well as trees and shrubs called the rough.
At the end of the fairway is an elevated area of carpet-like grass called the green. In the centre of the green is the hole, marked by the flag or pin. A golfer’s aim is to get the ball into the hole in the minimum number of hits (strokes). Greens are sometimes surrounded by obstacles, such as sandpits (called bunkers) or creeks or lakes (called water hazards.)
The game is played by taking successive strokes, but the ball that is farthest from the hole is played first. When scoring in golf, par is the number of strokes a golfer would take to play each hole and the whole course. There are par 3, 4 and 5 holes. If a golfer scores 3 on a par 4 hole than they can be referred to as 1 under par, similarly if a person scored 4 on a par 3 hole then they are referred to as 1 over par. At the end of a major competition the person who is the most under the par wins. If two people are on even par at the end of a competition they take part in a sudden death play off where the tied participants play one extra hole at a time, with those still tied for the lowest score moving on to the next hole until a winner has been determined. However many smaller club competitions usually don’t play sudden death if there is a tie and come up with their own ways of determining a winner such as a count back of the previous 9, 3 or 1 hole.
Scoring terms: In golf there is a scoring term for how above or below par a shot is. They are listed below:Numeric term Name Definition
−4 Condor four strokes under par−3 Albatross three strokes under par−2 Eagle two strokes under par−1 Birdie one stroke under parE Par equal to par+1 Bogey one stroke over par+2 Double bogey two strokes over par+3 Triple bogey three strokes over par+4 Quadruple bogey four strokes over par
(Davis et al, 1999).
Some other golf rules are listed below:
14-club limit – During golf you are allowed to have a maximum of 14 clubs in your
golf bag.
7
Teeing Off – When you are teeing off at the beginning of a hole, make sure you
place your ball behind the appropriate coloured markers.
As it lies - This means you may not improve the way the ball is at rest. If you are on
the green you may mark and pick up your ball to clean it, but while in the fairway you
must play the ball as it lies.
Identifying Balls – Make sure you identify your ball before you play it, penalties can
apply for hitting another players ball
Away – Once all the tee shots have been played the furthest ball from the hole plays
first.
Divots – When you play a stroke and create a divot in the ground it is the player’s
responsibility to replace the divot with the original piece of turf or fill in the divot with
sand.
Honours – The winner of the hole has the ‘honours’ and tees off first the next hole
played
Raking – If a player hits his/her ball into the sandtrap then they must rake it after
they play their shot
Penalty Hazards – If you hit your ball out of bounds or into a water trap the player
occurs a 1 shot penalty.
Putting Green - When on the green never walk across another player's line of putt.
The imprint that your feet leave on the green can alter the path of the ball. Always
step over the line of the putt or around it.
Removing The Flag – The flag may only be removed from the hole if the player who
is putting is putting from the green, if still on the fairway the flag must remain in the
hole
Fore – If you are playing a shot and is heading towards another group of players it is
your responsibility to yell out ‘Fore” so the group knows a ball is heading there way
(Golf Australia, 2011)

Court/field dimensions
Every golf course is a different size, shape and length depending on the
designers view when designing the golf course. The average length of the golf
courses in Ballarat is about 5500m in length for the men’s game.
The average number of strokes for a golf course is 72 strokes, this is called
Par. A golf course consists of par 3, 4 and 5 holes and has 18 holes in total, though 9
hole courses do exist and need to be played twice
Each hole has an area to tee off and a green with a hole to putt into. Golf
courses have obstacles called hazards and these range from sand traps to water
hazards to add a degree of difficulty to the player.
Game etiquetteSpirit of the Game - Golf is played for the most part without the supervision of a
referee or umpire. The game relies on the integrity of the individual to show
consideration for other players and to abide by the Rules. All players should conduct
themselves in a disciplined manner, demonstrating courtesy and sportsmanship at all
times, irrespective of how competitive they may be.
Safety - Players should ensure that no one is standing close by or in a position to be
hit by the club when they make a stroke or practice swing and should not swing until
the players in front are out of range. If a player plays a ball in a direction where there
is a danger of hitting someone, he should immediately shout ‘Fore’.
Consideration to other players - Players should always show consideration for
other players on the course and should not disturb their play by moving, talking or
making unnecessary noise. Fellow group members should watch the flight of the ball
when a player is hitting, by standing behind them
Play at Good Pace and Keep Up- Players should play at a good pace not holding
up groups of players behind them, if they are caught up to they should allow the
group to play through in front of them
Duty of Care for the Course – Players have a duty of care to look after the course
by replacing divots, raking sand traps and looking after greens and the flags.
Dress Code – Most courses have a dress code that player’s abide to in order play on
the course
(Golf Australia, 2011).

Cost analysis of conducting the unit: For this unit we are travelling off campus twice, once to a local golf course and once to a putt putt facility. At the golf course a golf expert will make themself available to help supervise the students around the golf course and provide extra feedback that one or two PE teachers might not be able to give. The cost for the excursion to the golf course, including the bus to and from the venue, hired equipment, the 9 holes and the expert assistance worked out to be around $15 per student, so a total of $375 for 25 students (this is a discounted rate for schools). The putt putt activity will cost around $14 dollars per student, for the bus trip to and from the facility and the game of putt putt that the students will play, so it will cost $350 for 25 students.
For hire of equipment, the school has been able to strike up a deal with a local driving range to hire the golf equipment such as sticks and balls free of charge. However the school will provide the driving range with a letter of appreciation and a school mug and pen. If this was not possible, the cost for hiring equipment for the two school lessons could be between $20 and $150 depending on what golf shops or courses you contact.

APPENDIX 2Competition/ round robin/ tournament/match play. Team selection – This competition doesn’t require team selection as the scoring will be for each
individual person not in teams as golf is predominantly an individual sport.
Organisation – Students will be placed into groups of 3 or 4 (depending on numbers) and
spread out over the eight activities or ‘holes’. Safety will be explained to students as a whole before the competition so that
no one gets injured. This competition will be carried out at the end of the unit as the students should
be well aware of the golf safety considerations by the end of the unit. Each hole will have an explanation of the task and how to score at the station. Equipment needed for each activity will be left at the hole and students are to
leave it there for the next group after each activity. Each student will be given a personal score card and will be required to write
down their score at the end of each hole. When all groups are finished their hole the students will move to the next
station, e.g. 1 ►2; 2►3; 3►4; 4►5; 5►6; 6►7; 7►8; 8►1.
Course lay out –
Hole 1 – Bucket chipEquipment: Number 9 iron, Number 8 iron, Bucket, 5 golf balls.Description: Students are to stand behind a line which is marked 2m away from a bucket. One at a time students get to try to chip the golf ball into the bucket. Students continue to try and chip the ball into the bucket until all other holes are finished. Scoring: each time a students lands the ball in the bucket they receive one point.
Hole 2 – Distance hitEquipment: Number 2 iron, tee, 12 golf balls. Description: Students take it in turns to hit the ball off the tee as far as they can. After each student has had 3 hits each the students are to find the balls and determine which student hit the greatest distance.Scoring: The student who hit the greatest distance gets 5 points, the next greatest distance 4 points etc down to 2 or 1 point depending on the number of students per group.
Hole 3 – Bunker shotEquipment: Number 9 iron, number 8 iron, 12 golf balls, bunker (could be made out of mats or a piece of yellow material for example.

Students continue to compete and score until all other holes are complete. Scoring: Each time the student hits their ball into a cup they receive one point.
Hole 6 – ArcheryEquipment: Number 4 iron, 12 golf balls, marked area, flag, tee. Description: Students are to aim at the flag which is surrounded by a marked area that looks like an archery target. Students get three shots each, once everyone has had their shots the students can walk down and find their golf balls and determine their scores. Scoring:Balls that hit the flag = 10 pointsBalls in the inner circle = 5 pointsBalls in the medium circle = 3 pointsBalls in the outer circle = 2 pointsBalls outside of the target = 0 points
Hole 7 – Accuracy Equipment: 10 golf balls, number 4 iron, cones to mark the distance that the students must hit overDescription: A line is marked 15m in front of the students, this is the line that the students are required to hit over.

APPENDIX 3Peer and Self Assessment Criteria Checklist. Golf Putting Checklist
Criteria Evident Yes/No CommentsNarrow stance, square to the ball, weight evenly distributedDominant hand is lower in the grip, thumbs pointing directly down the club, head directly over putterMovement in body, shoulders and arms kept rigid during back swing, back swing is in a straight lineContact of the ball make with the middle of the putter, body square and rigidKeep head down, raise your non dominant shoulder slightly, follow through in a straight line
44
APPENDIX 4 - Minor Games. Activity 1: Closest To the PinAim:So that students can practice the accuracy of the shots they use, all students will hit
their balls at the same target, with the winner from each round the student who can
land their ball closest to the target
Procedure:Students mark their golf balls with their initials, they all tee off at the same time
aiming for the same target, from behind the safety line. Once everybody has hit 3
balls, students retrieve the balls and discover the winner. Students then return to the
safety line, change from their previous position and the competition begins again.
Modifications/Variations:
- Increase or decrease the distance of the flag, depending on the students ability
- Hit more than 3 balls, for greater benefit, or less for time constraints
- Use different clubs, so practice different types of shots
- Incorporate obstacles so that students have to hit over them
- Incorporate a scoring system to add more of a competition element if one student is dominating
45
Activity 2: All Terrain Putting Aim:Students complete these different activities so that they understand the effect that,
rise, run, and length of greens has an effect on their putting.
Procedure:Multiple course are used incorporating different elevations, gradients, hole positions,
and if possible turf lengths, so that students can gain an understanding of the effect a
nature of a green can have on their putt. Students play the green 2 or 3 times, trying
to better their previous scores. Once they have done this, they rotate to another hole
and complete the same activity.
Modifications/Variations:- Alter the length of the putt, depending on the ability of the students
- If possible, change the position of the hole on the green, so that students can
better understand the implications of different techniques
- Add a green record that students have to attempt to match or better before
moving on to the next hole
- Incorporate hazards, such as water or bunkers that students have to
negotiate
46
- Have students complete holes on greens that are dry, then have them
complete the same greens when they are wet, so that they notice the
difference
Activity 3: Bunker ShotsAim:For students to understand the rules regarding hitting their ball from a bunker, and
they are comfortable to do so.
Procedure:Students have a bucket of sand that they sit their ball on; they then hit the ball off the
sandy surface, and attempt to get it into the bucket that originally held the sand.
Students practice this over a variety of distances, and also practice having their ball
on top of the sand, and also partially imbedded.
Modifications/Variations:- Make the bucket bigger, so that students can achieve the goal (i.e. have a
bin, hoop or flag to aim at instead)
- Have an obstacle that students must hit over to complete the shot
- Have students compete in pairs in a HORSE game, where if one student
makes the shot and the other doesn’t, the student who didn’t make the shot
receives a letter
47
Activity 4: In the SticksAim:Students get out of hazards and back on course when they have mishit a ball into the
trees of shrubs surrounding the course
Procedure:Simulating the hazards that a golfer may encounter in and around a golf course,
students will negotiate shots by placing their ball in long grass, shrubs, between or on
sticks, in amongst trees and bushes etc, so that their shot or path is somewhat
impaired. They are then required to adjust their shot, swing or stance so that they
can get their ball as close as possible to the hoop located x amount of metres away.
The flag shall be above the hoop so that students have a vocal point to aim at.
Modifications/Variations:- Students adjust the difficultly of their shots accordingly
- Increase or decrease the number of hazards and the distance of the shot
depending on the students ability
- Have students talk through the hazards and what they are trying to attempt
with the shot, either in partners of within the group, if the shot does not work,
attempt the shot again or utilize another approach
48
- Use different clubs to encourage different shots
Activity 5: GradientsAim:Students hit balls off rises and descents that they may encounter whilst on a golf
course
Procedure:Using either natural gradients, or hitting off man made gradients, students will adjust
their footing, stance and swing, to achieve the best possible result and hit their ball
as close as possible to the target area.
Modifications/Variations:
- Adjust the distance of each shot
- Utilize different clubs, so that different shots are used
- Incorporate obstacles that students have to hit under or over so complete a
shot
- Have students hit at a bigger target
- Increase or decrease the gradients depending students abilities
