We work to a proven programme of delivery, which is coach driven but player centred and aimed at providing each individual with the tools and support to develop their skills to the highest level possible.
The performance Golf Academy Wolverhampton programme is designed to present the student with advice, support and direction aimed at improving their performance in golf and enhancing their career opportunities with the golfing market.
The programme follows a process of tried and tested methods delivered by our coaching staff. Students are encouraged to continually evaluate their commitment and application to their own development, utilising a series of tools and techniques designed to measure and monitor their improvement in performance.
They are asked to follow a process of:
- Evaluating their current lifestyle
- Setting goals and targets (short, medium & long term)
- Structuring a competition programme
- Designing an individual training programme
- Planning their daily & weekly programme
- Measuring and monitoring performance
- Understanding their equipment.
The performance Golf programme encourages the student to become independent and responsible for their own development and actions. Students are introduced to the multi diciplined approach to improving performance in golf.
All of the programme delivery is player centred and offers each student the opportunity to progress at their own pace, but within the requirements of the programme.
The golf programme will look to provide workshops and seminars by tour professionals, top amateurs and leading golf coaches. In addition, physiotherapists, physiologists and psychologists will share their skills and experiences of working in sport at the highest level with the students.
