Ladies Golf
As well as 1-1 lessons, I offer a group coaching clinic.
The group coaching clinic is an excellent way of meeting other golfers and building a bond. It is likely to start at various points through the year and is aimed at different ability levels as follows.
Clinic 1 (Introduction to golf)
Running over 8 weeks, the Level 1 program is intended for beginners to the game or those who have a couple of lessons in the past and wish to return to the game. This level is basically an Introduction to Golf.
These sessions cover most of the fundamental areas of the game of golf from driving through to putting. Each week a different area is covered with guided practice drills for participants to practice through the week. Once undertaken, participants can opt to do the program a second time before moving to Level 2.
