Headwear, Apparel, Accessories to Celebrate Live Global Events
NEW BEDFORD, Mass. – AHEAD is an official merchandise partner supporting Women’s Golf Day (WGD) for the live version on September 1.
AHEAD joins more than 50,000 women and girls, 1,000 golf courses and 66 countries around the world unifying and participating in these international events, which were created to engage, empower, and support women and girls through golf.
Promising to be the largest single-day celebration of women’s golf, WGD is buoyed by a partnership with the ANNIKA Foundation, the charitable foundation of Annika Sörenstam, who also has enjoyed a long-standing partnership with AHEAD.
“AHEAD is especially proud to join thousands of women and girls in many countries by supporting this initiative,” said Anne Broholm, CEO, AHEAD. “And, we applaud WGD founder Elisa Gaudet for partnering with our long-time friend Annika Sorenstam to increase the event’s exposure to help impact more women and girls through the game of golf.”
AHEAD’s official WGD merchandise includes several styles of headwear, all with the WGD logo and available on the Women’s Golf Day official site.
Gaudet says, “Women’s Golf Day is an amazing community of people, brands and organizations whose passion is golf. The new VIP (Very Inspired Player) membership will allow us to connect them to the companies who are prioritizing the women’s game, offering amazing female products and ultimately enhance their experience of the sport.”
