Golf lessons - learn in a sociable atmosphere

Golf is a sport that many people want to play however sometimes the stigma that surrounds the game can still see it seen as rather elitist and getting players to drive through the entrance can be hardest challenge. However most golf clubs are looking for new players, the next generation of golfer. As well as wanting to change the old image of what golf is all about. Golf is now a fashionable and sociable sport played by people from  all backgrounds and that is the way it should be.

If you are looking to take up the game why not try some group coaching sessions at your club.Group coaching has many benefits, notably that it is sociable. Taking a group of half a dozen or so beginners allows a sociable atmosphere to be built as a result of a fun and light hearted intro to the game. The same aspects will be covered as in one to one sessions however this will be slightly less intensive and a lot cheaper. Group coaching knocks the price of tuition down which allows more time to be spent learning the game.

As you learn together week after week you will also find you will be in contact with some similar standard playing partners. Starting golf can be good but getting into a group of people to allow you to play regularly can be hard yet group coaching will put you in contact with ideal companions.

Finally as a coach it is always fun to teach a group. It allows us to chill out a little and provide an entertaining experience to encourage further play. At the end of the day you wanted to play and we want the players, it always works. 

Below is an example of some upcoming group sessions we have coming up at my club, Sedlescombe Golf Club:
