Where does Brad teach?

Brad Marek teaches at Pleasanton Golf Center in Pleasanton, CA.

What levels does Brad teach?

Brad lists beginner, intermediate, competitive and advanced players as the levels taught.

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.

How do lessons prepare a player for tournaments?

Good preparation goes well beyond the swing. Lessons can cover course management, a steady pre-shot routine and how to recover after a bad hole. Coaches often design practice that adds a little pressure, such as scoring games around the green. Learning the rules and etiquette ahead of time also helps a young player feel calm when it counts.
