Would you like to assist with coaching juniors?

A PGA Level 1 coaching qualification equips enthusiastic helpers at golf clubs – usually school teachers, junior organisers and parents - with the basic techniques of the game and the ability to convey these techniques to the golfing youth under the direct supervision of a PGA professional.
The 2 day course includes coaching skills and an introduction to various games, drills and activities compiled to aid learning. In addition, safety is emphasized within the course along with how to communicate with and coach children.
Although the course only scratches the surface in terms of the game’s rudimentary basics, it enables a Level 1 coach to assist in the delivery of a teaching session under the supervision of a more qualified PGA coach. The main focus is on keeping the sessions fun and helping to keep the children motivated.
