Academy

Where Young Golfers Learn, Grow, and Play with Purpose

At the heart of our junior section is a commitment to helping young golfers develop their skills in a fun, structured, and supportive environment. Through a carefully planned coaching programme, our Academy offers a clear pathway from beginner to confident player — focusing on technique, course knowledge, and a love for the game.

Whether your child is just picking up a club for the first time or working towards their first handicap, our experienced coaches are here to guide them every step of the way, with regular sessions, progress tracking, and plenty of opportunities to play and compete.

Starting from September 2025, we hope to be working with England Golf and The Golf Foundation to roll out their latest plans to build the junior game.
