An Individual Approach
Student-athletes at Bishops Gate Golf Academy don’t just
join a program or fit in to a system. A program is built
uniquely for each individual based on their goals, aspirations,
tournament schedule, strengths and identified areas of
improvement.
In an effort to further promote an individualized approach,
we introduced the POD coaching model. This model consists
of a POD leader with extensive experience and training in
junior golf development, directing a POD of senior coaches
and students. The POD leader oversees all aspects of the
student development from assessments, creating the
student blueprint to monitoring and reporting on progress
throughout the year.
The BGGA facility is comprised of three practice zones, and
each zone includes an area to practice long game, short
game and putting. Within the zones, the coach can set up
training for technical practice or preparation for competition
to ensure that each student is working on a periodized
training program.
