BrokerLink – 2025 Partnership Announcement

Golf Nova Scotia is pleased to announce its official partnership with BrokerLink.

At BrokerLink, they do more than just provide the insurance protection you need. BrokerLink lives and works in the communities they serve and is actively involved in supporting local communities through socially responsible initiatives year-round. BrokerLink’s corporate social responsibility efforts touch the lives of so many Canadians daily, and throughout the year, you can find them supporting a variety of community events, festivals, and fundraisers, whether they’re helping to provide food and shelter to those in need; running marathons to raise money for fighting disease, or providing support in the event of a catastrophe.

Golf Nova Scotia is excited to partner with BrokerLink this year and we thank them for their support!

First Tee Junior Coach Program

First Tee – Atlantic Junior Coach Program was created for youth age 15+ to help model and teach the First Tee Program curriculum to our younger participants. Junior Coaches provide a vital service to the First Tee community by decreasing the student-to-instructor ratio in our classes, directly improving our young golfers’ learning experience on-course. At the same time, they build their resumé and real-world career competencies by working alongside First Tee Coaches and PGA of Canada professionals.

For all positions, there is no minimum hourly commitment, but a consistent weekly schedule will be developed for you each season based on your availability. If you would like to learn more about our Junior Coach Program or get involved, please contact Emily at enickerson@golfcanada.ca.
