Junior Golf

Junior golf lesson
As a certified student of the American Development Model (ADM) my juniors are taught using the American version of the Long-Term Athlete Development (LTAD) model prescribing what children, youth, and adults need to be doing at the right time to develop in sport or activity.

For the juniors the lessons are not just about golf, they are about improving their all-round athleticism, so they have access to other sports now and in the future. It is my responsibility to encourage all potential golfers under the age of 15, to play multiple sports.

Both kids and adults will get active, stay active, and reach the greatest peaks of sport performance when following this model. Long term commitment to physical literacy and sport skill development is vital to optimize athletic potential.

Edge Barbados also offers a unique program tailored specifically for Tiny Tots, introducing young children to the fundamentals of golf. This group focuses on enhancing agility, stability, and coordination. Through specially designed activities and exercises, children are encouraged to develop these essential physical skills in a playful and engaging manner. .​

As a coach I try to incorporate dynamic movements, balanced exercises, and coordination drills into the sessions, helping children build a solid foundation of athleticism that will benefit them both on and off the golf course.
​By emphasizing the importance of agility, stability, and coordination alongside golf skills, this program not only prepares children for success in the sport but also promotes overall physical development and well-being at a young age.

​Junior Golf Certification
All juniors who come to me for lessons have a pathway through the Junior Golf Certification Program. Like school, and many other sports, the teaching and certification is completed incrementally, with each level having its own set of golf skills and understanding to achieve. This way the juniors have an aspiration that is not too far away.

The Junior Golf Certification Program is split into two sections:
  1. Practical elements using the golf swing and one’s abilities within it
  2. Theoretical elements including their knowledge of the game of golf. (A booklet will be provided)

At EDGE Coaching, we hope this certification will bring all juniors, whichever coach they chose, to participate in golf, with an aspiration of ascending through the levels to become a club golfer, gaining a sports scholarship, and maybe one day, representing their nation. 
​
There will be one certification day during each school holiday break. The cost, for my students, is included in the termly session fees. Once the student shows a commitment to the lessons, they will receive a color coded Polo shirt to represent their golfing level.
