Why More Children Are Taking To Golf In Chennai

At BT Golf Chennai, Sriya Chari a businesswoman spoke about a clear shift she’s seeing on the greens—young mothers playing a central role in getting children interested in golf. From weekend practice sessions to structured coaching, moms are increasingly prioritising the sport for its values as much as its physical benefits. She noted that golf teaches children independence, respect, and emotional control—traits parents want their kids to develop early. As family participation on the course rises, Sriya believes this parental push is helping golf grow organically in Chennai, with children now seeing the sport as both fun and formative.
