In mid June 2016, the Rotary Club of Rushen & Western Mann helped a promising young golfer - Owen Qualtrough will the donation of a set of golf clubs.
The donation was made possible to due to the generosity of Rotary Club member David Alcock and his friends, who were keen to help a local youngster learn to play golf.
Owen Qualtrough was chosen after the Rotary Club of Rushen & Western Mann approached Castletown Golf Links Manager and fellow Rotarian Ged Power for his assistance. Castletown Golf Links have been working with Castle Rushen High School in recent years to encourage local youngsters to take up golf.
In making the donation Rotary Club of Rushen & Western Mann member David Alcock commented that "this is another example of how the Rotary Club of Rushen & Western Mann is working to support young people in our local community".
