The Ellie Perks Interview

In this episode of Fore Everybody, Martin sits down with Ellie Perks — golfer, PGA trainee, and passionate advocate for inclusion in the sport. Ellie’s journey began at age seven when her dad took her to Hagley Golf Club and introduced her to a community that would change her life. Since then, she’s carved her own path as a competitive golfer with a strong handicap, competed in events like the G4D Open, and used her platform to open doors for others. She talks honestly about the challenges she’s faced and her dream of one day running her own academy to give even more people the chance to play. Whether you’re a golfer yourself or someone who loves stories of passion, purpose and impact, this episode will inspire you. 🎧 Follow Ellie on Instagram 👉 @ellieperksgolf
