The Discover & Fun phase is designed to introduce young children to golf in a way that is engaging, active and confidence-building. This phase focuses on helping kids move well, learn basic golf skills and, most importantly, love the game.
What We Focus On
At this age, children are developing coordination, balance and basic motor skills. Our coaching reflects this by combining simple technical fundamentals with movement and play.
Key areas include:
Sessions are structured, but playful—ensuring kids associate golf with enjoyment and success.
Ages: 9–12 years (Players who have been through Fun Phase or some established golf practice)
Class Size: 6:1 Player to Coach
The Learn & Play phase is designed to help players build, understand and refine swing mechanics, while learning how to practice the new skills and when they will be needed. While enjoyment remains important, this stage introduces greater technical detail.
What We Focus On
In the Learn & Play Phase, players are ready to move beyond basic fundamentals and begin understanding how the golf swing works.
Key areas include:
Players are guided to understand what they are working on, why it matters, and how to improve it.
The Learn & Play phase bridges the gap between fun discovery and performance development—building technical understanding, purposeful practice habits and confident young golfers ready for the next stage of their journey.
Ages: approx 10–15 years (Regularly playing and practicing)
Class Size: 6:1 Player to Coach
The Train & Compete phase aligns with the TPI Train Phase, where golf begins to move from participation toward performance and competitive development. At this stage, players are more physically, cognitively and emotionally ready to train with greater purpose, structure and accountability.
Golf is no longer just about learning skills—it’s about developing a repeatable process, improving performance behaviours and learning how to compete effectively.
What We Focus On
The Train Phase is where players develop the tools required to perform under pressure and adapt to changing conditions.
Key areas include:
A strong emphasis is placed on how players train and think, not just the results they achieve.
The Train & Compete programme develops skilled, resilient and self-aware golfers—equipped with the technical ability, mindset and habits needed for competitive golf and long-term performance pathways.
