About

Training for juniors who compete

Derek Schnarr trains each junior at Balance & Believe Golf and Performance Academy as a whole athlete, because competitive golf asks more of a player than a sound swing. Golf instruction runs alongside fitness recommendations, nutrition guidance and the mental side of the game, so the physical foundations grow with the technical ones. For juniors planning to play beyond high school, college preparation is part of the plan.
