GROWING UP GREEN

Gavin and Galven Green’s story begins like so many others: As a child Gavin followed his parents to a driving range, and like most children, he wanted to imitate his parents. To their surprise, the starry-eyed seven-year-old could hit the ball. It wasn’t long before they began to realise the passion the young lad had for the fairway game. Galven on the other hand was only one year old at the time, but as soon as Gavin signed up for lessons, little Galven was tagging along to classes with his big brother.

“My brother and I found our passion for the game almost instantaneously,” said Gavin. “And we have been playing golf for as long as we can remember. I picked up my first club when my parents brought me along to a driving range, while Galven picked it up when he and I went to a driving range, and he started hitting golf balls with a club.”

Parents, Vivienne and Gary Green, money to buy himself his first set of golf clubs, and the rest was history.
