clubgolf stage 3

Stage 3 is a two-year course comprising 60 hours of coaching in each year
and therefore requires a significant increase in time-commitment on the part
of participating children. This course builds on the golf skills and knowledge developed in Stage 1 & 2, adding in Tee Shots and Short, Medium and Long
Iron play. A significant amount of video swing analysis is also included, and
children will learn to associate the shape and outcome of their shots with
elements of their golf swing.

Participating children will already have attained a CONGU handicap and will
see themselves as improving golfers. There will normally be an element of
talent identification in selecting children for participation in Stage 3 and the
delivering professional will be expected to liaise with those who have
coached children in earlier stages to make suitable arrangements for selection.

Who delivers Stage 3 coaching?

Stage 3 is delivered by PGA professionals qualified to Level 2 or higher who have also completed a two day Stage 3 Orientation Programme delivered by the PGA
