2021-2022 Sport-études program

WHO ARE THE SPORT-ÉTUDES PROGRAMS FOR?

The objective of any Sport-études program is for student-athletes to achieve the best possible
balance between their athletic and academic goals. Academic success takes precedence over
the achievement of athletic goals. This fundamental principle serves as a premise for the
admission of any athlete to each partner school of a recognized program. The learning pace in
such a program is faster than in regular programs. Athletes accepted into a Sport-études program
generally demonstrate a higher sense of autonomy and dedication while being highly committed
to the pursuit of excellence, both in their academic and athletic performances.

WHY CHOOSE A RECOGNIZED SPORT-ÉTUDES PROGRAM?

There are many initiatives in the sports sector in Québec. Concentration programs are one of
them but they cannot use the name Sport-études in their communications as the content of these
programs does not meet the requirements of the Ministère de l'Éducation et de l'Enseignement
supérieur (MEES) for a recognized Sport-études program.

There are many MEES rules for the recognition of a Sport-études program. These are few:

•   The high school (host school) must supervise a minimum of 25 student-athletes identified by
    their relevant sports federations.

•   The school must organize closed groups of students for each grade level in which it has
    identified student-athlete.

•   The host school must ensure that the offered adapted program complies with the current
    pedagogical regime. It must free up at least 25% of the time that is normally scheduled in the
    subject grid for students at the same grade level and allow a daily period of three consecutive
    hours between 7:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. for the sports structure to take over or a period of eight
    hours after the beginning of classes.

•   The Federation shall guarantee the conditions of sports supervision, either directly or through
    the supervision of its representative.

•   The sports supervision must include an average of 15 hours of training per week at a rate of
    three hours per school day during the school year.

•   The Federation or its representative is also responsible for ensuring that athletes are coached
    by coaches whose certification corresponds at a minimum to a Level 3 or "trained" status in
    the Competition-Development context of the National Coaching Certification Program
    (NCCP), according to an acceptable athlete-coach ratio depending on the sport.

Only recognized Sport-études programs are eligible for financial support from the Direction du
sport et de l'activité physique (DSLAP) and only identified student-athletes are eligible for the
board and transportation assistance measure of the Ministère de l'Éducation et de l'Enseignement
supérieur (MEES).

            Québec's young golf elite shines (video produced by Radio Canada)

From discovery through camps and clinics, to competitive tours and the Golf-études program, Golf
Québec offers a complete path to bring its young athletes towards excellence.

                                                                                 Page 7
Training program
The training goals are based on the annual training program and it is from there that weekly and
daily themes take shape (technique, strategy, tactics, etc.). The main theme represents the
cornerstone from which the various educational programs responding to the specific needs of the
athletes will be developed. An educational drill is an exercise that presents a precise objective to
be achieved according to defined parameters (conditions of achievement, success criteria,
observation points, etc.). This method allows personalizing the training of each athlete.

In order to monitor the progress made by athletes, a brief evaluation is regularly sent to parents
during the school year. Optional parent-coach meetings may be organized. It is important to note
that it is always possible to contact your child's coach.

TRAINING - MONTHLY STRUCTURE

September and October

Outdoor training begins in early September and ends in late October or when it is too cold to go
outside and the risk of injury is too great. These two months of training are very demanding for
athletes at all levels.

Every day, athletes leave their respective schools in the early afternoon to go to the golf club they
are affiliated with as part of the Golf Québec Golf-études program. Coaches supervise all training
sessions.

Training during these months is aimed at correcting golf technique, ensuring the transfer of
acquired knowledge to game situations and accumulating the necessary data to ensure the
effectiveness of indoor training sessions.

SCHOOL TOUR

This Tour is unique in Canada and includes:

    Five 36-hole tournaments strategically located in the school calendar (registration fees
     paid by Golf Québec).
    Corrective interventions made to athletes by coaches during competitions.
    Individual and team results.

In order to be part of the Golf-études program as well as to participate in the tournaments
of the school tour, each student-athlete must possess a 2021 Golf Québec/Golf Canada
membership. If you are not a member in a golf club, it is possible to obtain this
membership online (Join Now).

This Tour is exclusive to student-athletes registered in the Golf-études program.

                                    Page 8
In terms of competition, first tournaments on the School Tour

The first two of the five tournaments on the School Tour for the 2021-2022 school year are
scheduled in the fall.

2021-2022 School Tour - Tournaments 1 and 2

Dates:                 Information to come (planned for September and October 2021)
Golf club:             Information to come
Includes:              Two golf rounds, access to the driving range including practice balls as well
                       as corrective interventions by the attending coaches
Results:               Individual and team
Costs:                 Meals, transportation and accommodation (if required) at the athlete's
                       expense
Supervision:           All coaches in the program
Selection:             All student-athletes registered in the program, without restriction

November and December

Indoor golf training

When the weather conditions are no longer suitable, training takes place indoors. This training
period starts towards the end of October (depending on the temperature) until mid-December
2021. Please note that transportation to the indoor training facility is the responsibility of each
athlete. The training facility is, in most cases, located at or near the school.

Fitness

A golf player must have undeniable basic physical abilities: power, speed, coordination, aerobic
endurance, flexibility, etc. The maintenance of a high golfing potential is based on physical abilities
modulated by a perfect adaptation to the technique and psychological conditions of the game.
This is why the athlete's physical preparation is so important, not to say essential.

This training, lasting 12 to 15 consecutive weeks, is divided into two phases, one of four to five
weeks, called general, and the other of eight to ten weeks, called specific. The general physical
preparation phase begins in October, two to three times a week. Specialized staff working in
fitness centres is able to draw up a list of appropriate exercises for this type of training.

Athletes who have actively participated in the general fitness phase will benefit more from the
specific fitness phase. Although athletes have access to training facilities at their school, it may
be recommended that they also consider an annual membership in a fitness centre to increase
their training frequency. This should be discussed with the coach.

                                                                                       Page 9
January to April

Resuming of indoor golf training

Golf training resumes at the indoor training facility of each structure as soon as athletes return to
class in January 2021 and will continue until the third week of April or until the weather permits to
go back outside.

Spring Training Camp, North Carolina, USA
(March - voluntary participation)

The objective of this training camp is to prepare the athlete for the tournament season. During a
whole week, the student-athletes of the Golf Québec Golf-études program benefit from
remarkable golf infrastructures. In order to maximize the performance and efficiency of the spring
training camp for both athletes and coaches, venues are always selected according to specific
criteria such as the quality and difficulty of the golf courses, the size and diversity of training
structures (greens, bunkers, driving range, etc.) as well as the quantity and quality of range balls.
The quality of accommodation and the proximity of restaurants and supermarkets are also taken
into account. Information on this activity, including the cost, will be published by January 2022 at
the latest.

2021-2022 School Tour – Tournament 3
The tournament is held during the spring training camp in Wilmington, North Carolina.

Eligibility:           Voluntary participation
Dates:                 March 2022 (dates to be confirmed)
Costs:                 At the athlete's expense
Supervision:           Approximately one coach for 10 athletes

                                   Page 10
Avril et mai

Outdoor training resumes as soon as weather conditions allow doing so in Québec (usually by the
third week of April). The structure of the training sessions is similar to that used in the fall.
However, their content is focused on getting ready for the competitive season. More specifically,
tactical, strategic and psychological concepts are prioritized. The last training session of the year
is scheduled for June 3, 2022.

Tournament planning

Training sessions in April and May are also used to plan for the tournament season which begins
in June. Coaches support the athletes in this planning process so that the athletes can benefit
from a balanced tournament schedule, broken down with recovery periods that are necessary for
the proper development of any athlete. It should be noted that the follow-up and coaching of
student-athletes during the competitive season is not included in the fees of the Golf-études
program. An agreement can be made with the coach to obtain private coaching, without any
obligation on both sides.

Admission form. This form is available at the school board of the school currently attended by
the student.

It may happen that the admission of a student-athlete may be refused at the academic level due

Registration fees
General Fees:

•   Administrative fee for opening a file: $95 (this fee is payable only once).
•   The annual registration fee for the 2021-2022 Golf-études program is $3,680.
•   Additional costs are to be expected for transportation (bus or cab) between the school and
    the training sites - the amount varies according to the school or structure.
•   Information on method of payment: credit card

Withdrawal fee:

In the event that a student-athlete withdraws from the Golf-Study program prior to receiving
scheduled services or during the school year:

    •   $300 from the annual registration fee is non-refundable at any time.
    •   The refundable balance will then be prorated for unused practice time.

Bank charges:

•   A $25 fee is charged for any cheque issued without sufficient funds.

Closure of structure:

Golf Québec may have to close a training facility due to an insufficient number of registrations.
The number of student-athletes required to ensure the viability of a structure varies between 10
and 12 athletes depending on the structure. If these quotas are not respected during the first week
of training, Golf Québec reserves the right to close the concerned structure.

In addition, a facility may also be forced to close in the event that it is impossible to have a golf
coach with the required certification according to official standards.

In this case, the registration fee will be refunded in full.

Interruption or cancellation of the program in case of circumstances beyond our control:

In the event of outstanding circumstances such as a health, economic or social crisis with
repercussions beyond the Federation's control, Golf Québec is committed to protecting student-
athletes registered in the Golf-études program by following all directives from our governments,
the Public Health Department or other authorities responsible for managing such situations.

In doing so, should it become necessary to interrupt or cancel the services provided within the
Golf-études program for a given school year, Golf Québec undertakes to reimburse student-
athletes, in whole or in part, based on the prorated value of unused training time and according
to their status. The fixed costs incurred by Golf Québec will also be subtracted from the amount
reimbursable to each student-athlete.

For student-athletes who plan to pursue their education and remain active in the Golf-études

                                                                                     Page 13
program when it resumes, the option would be to apply the refundable credit to the student-
athlete's participation fees for the next school year of the Golf-études program.

For student-athletes who are in the process of obtaining their diploma or who do not wish to remain
active in the Golf-études program when activities resume, the offered option will be to reimburse
the applicable amount.
