For golf coaches

A golfer brings much more than their swing into a lesson.

They may come to us because they want to hit the ball better. But they also bring nerves, frustration, expectations, uncertainty, ambition and their own way of seeing the game.

Being a golf coach can be about more than giving technical answers.

We have an opportunity to help golfers understand what they want, become more aware of themselves and gradually take greater ownership of their own development.

How my coaching works:

01 · Self-awareness

We all bring our own beliefs, assumptions, habits and reactions into a coaching session. When we are helping a golfer technically, they cannot change what they cannot see. The same applies to us. Becoming more aware of ourselves gives us more choice in how we coach.

02 · Character

The way we turn up has an effect on the people we coach. Curiosity, humility, courage, patience and integrity can create very different coaching environments. We explore what matters to you as a coach and how you want those values to show up in your work.

03 · Coaching capability

Technical knowledge matters, but so does knowing how to work with the person in front of you. We develop skills such as listening to understand, asking rather than assuming, communicating clearly, challenging constructively and helping golfers take responsibility for their own development.

04 · Positive influence

A coach’s influence can extend beyond improving someone’s golf swing. By creating an environment where golfers are understood, challenged and given responsibility, we can help them become more autonomous and more capable of directing their own development.
