FAQ

Questions parents ask

How far apart should lessons be?

Consistency matters more than volume. Lessons spaced far apart make it hard to remember what was covered, while lessons packed too closely leave little room to practice. Ask the coach to suggest a rhythm that fits your child's goals and energy, then adjust it as interest grows or as competition becomes part of the picture.

At what age can a child start golf lessons?

Readiness matters more than a birthday. A child is usually ready when they can follow simple instructions, stay focused on a short activity and show real interest in hitting balls. Early lessons for young beginners should feel like play, with lots of movement and quick tasks. If your child enjoys it and asks to go back, the timing is right.

What should my child expect at their first lesson?

Mostly introductions and a relaxed look at the basics. Coaches usually chat with a new player about any golf they have tried, then check fundamentals such as posture, aim and how the club is held. Many start near the green with putting or short chips, where early success builds confidence.
