What is the Wentworth Foundation?

Clubhouse

Founded in 1991 by legendary golf professional Bernard Gallacher.

The Wentworth Golf and Tennis Foundation is the charity of the renowned Wentworth Club. The Foundation benefits from the infrastructure, employees and members of the Club in providing professional coaching, advice, guidance and support through training and competitions as well as the opportunity to develop life skills to help young aspiring golfers and tennis players in our local community irrespective of their gender or background realise their dreams.

The foundation values

The Foundation supports Golf and Tennis Scholarships at Wentworth Club for local school children as well as a Tennis Outreach programme which brings tennis to the local schools in the heart our community.

“It’s about putting something worthwhile back into the local community and giving young people the opportunity, they might not otherwise have had to follow their dreams”.

“Great organisations contribute to the communities in which they operate. The Wentworth Foundation is our commitment to that principle, using the power of sport to create opportunities, invest in education, and support initiatives that make a real difference. Through direct donations to local causes and the mentorship of young scholars, we are shaping futures and building a legacy that extends far beyond the fairways.”
