Rosie Belsham at Matfen Hall

An inspiration to many young and amateur golfers, we’re delighted to welcome Rosie back to her north east roots and to offer support.

Our sponsorship and funding enabled Rosie to go through to the Lalla Aicha Qualifying School where she competed through to the final stage with a captivating and impressive performance.

Now a pro golfer, Rosie is continuing her partnership with Matfen Hall. Our 27-hole championship course and world-class training facilities within our Academy and at The Golf Lab provides the perfect base to for her to develop and train.

Growing up in nearby Whitley Bay, Rosie’s ability for golf was clear from a young age. Starting out at just 9-years-old, she began by playing alongside her family and balancing her time between golf and hockey. From the ages of 14 to 16, Rosie trained at Matfen Hall under the guidance of coach, JJ Vallely. A natural talent, she swiftly progressed to national tournaments, deepening her commitment to golf and sparking an ambition to play professionally. At 18 she followed her dream across the Atlantic to Baylor University in Waco, Texas to study health, kinesiology and leisure. After graduation, Rosie returned to the UK and our championship course to continue her training and journey to the professional game. Now a qualified pro, we’re proud to partner with Rosie as she continues to train, tour and compete.

We look forward to sharing Rosie’ progress as she continues her journey at Matfen Hall.

Her goals for 2025 include achieving a LETAS win and securing her full Ladies European Tour (LET) card, taking full advantage of her LET starts with some strong performances.
