ISF WSC Golf 2025

Before the First Swing: What to Expect from ISF WSC Golf 2025

Jul. 13, Rabat, Morocco – The waiting is about over: the inaugural ISF World School Golf Championship 2025 is set to officially open tomorrow in Morocco’s vibrant capital. As delegations arrive and begin their final preparations on the practice greens of Royal Golf Dar Es Salam, the atmosphere is already charged with anticipation.

ISF and the Local Organising Committee are fully ready—course flags are up, scorecards are printed, and the world of school golf is about to make history.

A Milestone in School Sport History

This marks the first-ever ISF World School Championship of Golf, a landmark in the evolution of school sport. ISF President Željko Tanasković highlighted the event’s significance:

"The organisation of the first-ever ISF World School Golf Championship in Morocco marks a historic milestone for the international school sport movement. It represents the official inclusion of golf in the ISF programme and clearly reflects our commitment to diversifying sporting opportunities for young student-athletes worldwide."

Beyond the historic first, the championship underscores the growing role of golf in youth development. Golf fosters concentration, patience, and self-discipline while promoting outdoor physical activity. Introducing the sport to young people within school settings helps nurture not only physical fitness but also mental resilience and lifelong well-being.

An Educational Championship at Its Core

As with all ISF events, education is central to the championship.

With the support of Morocco’s Ministry of National Education and ISF Member Organisation Federation Royale Morocaine du Sport Scolaire, the championship benefits from a unique partnership with Mohammed VI Polytechnic University (UM6P), which provides comfortable and accessible accommodations and meals for all participants.

Further enriching the educational dimension, the ISF Academy delivers a dedicated online pre-event training course for Heads of Delegation and Coaches, covering topics such as:

  • Safeguarding in Sport

  • Anti-Doping Prevention

  • Injury Prevention and Performance

In parallel, ISF is also delivering an on-site seminar for local PE teachers—a three-day programme designed to enhance their knowledge and teaching skills in physical education. Conducted in collaboration with academic institutions and expert educators, these sessions will empower local teachers to apply modern, student-focused training principles in their own classrooms.

From first-time swings to global inspiration, the ISF World School Golf Championship 2025 promises to be more than just a competition: it’s a celebration of sport, learning, and youth potential.
