Level 3 & Stage 3 Orientation
In order to be able to coach clubgolf Stage
3 and Area Coaching, coaches
must be
PGA Professionals qualified to Level 2 or higher. In addition they
must
attend
the Stage 3 Orientation course of two days duration
and be
deemed suitable by the course tutors.
Each Orientation course will take place over two consecutive
days at
Inverclyde National Sport Centre in January 2009.
The course will cost
£100.00 for clubgolf Stage 3
participants, which will include accommodation,
meals and
coaching manual. The PGA will offer 50 CPD points to each
coach taking part. Coaches nominated by Areas to undertake
the Orientation
will be fully funded by the SGU.
Find out more in the Stage 3 Orientation
Course Information Sheet.
You can apply using the Stage 3 Orientation Course Application Form.
Following the orientation of coaches there are a number
of actions:
• Coaches orientated at clubgolf Stage 3 can either
run full programmes
at their own golf clubs or utilise
certain parts of the programme to best
meet their own needs.
The programme and resource is flexible.
• Coaches orientated at Stage 3 Performance will
have been identified by
their SGU Area. They will be asked
by their Areas to implement elements
of the coaching programme
into their Area Coaching. They can also run
their own development/performance
programme at their own golf facility.

2009, please contact your local clubgolf Regional Manager or Ron Wallace, Coach Education Manager Scotland
