BGGA Camp Guide 2019 | Page 10

CAMPUS Located on beautiful Lake Harris in Florida’s Lake County, just 45 minutes from Orlando International Airport, the BGGA training facility is second to none, where various challenging golf course conditions are replicated on the range, providing an environment that builds performance skills. The 17-acre training area, with nine holes of golf and multiple areas to work on long game and short game, has been carefully designed to challenge players. It can be played from multiple tee locations to multiple greens, making it possible to train for almost every shot imaginable. Summer camp is fun, not just because of all the awesome people you will meet from around the world or the fun activity schedule that is nonstop. What makes BGGA summer camp special is that you will leave with a much better understanding of your game and a clear path to getting better. Whether you are new to the game or aspire to play college golf, the summer camp training experience at BGGA will give you tools and strategies that you will use for years to come. We start with the basics, and make sure that campers have the fundamentals of a solid, athletic golf swing. Analyzing the sequence of the swing and how your body moves throughout the process is a key part of the technical plan. Once the camper is aware of what their swing faults are, they are given tasks and drills to work on to make those changes. Golf is a game played on a course, not on a range. BGGA has its own private course where juniors take priority. Campers are on the course daily to work through strategic performance elements of the game, while continuing to make swing and short game improvements. 10 We were inspired to make the golf experience a strategic challenge like a game of chess, hence Bishops Gate Golf Academy. This unique training environment allows you to train in golf course conditions every day. We have over 50,000 square feet of training tee space, 30,000 square feet of putting and short game greens, and 15,000 square feet of bunkers. There is no other training environment better equipped to prepare you and your game for competition.   The BGGA Training Ground 8 specialized training locations 50,000 square feet of training tee space 30,000 square feet of putting & short game greens 15,000 square feet of bunkers 4 teeing areas resembling different holes • Par-4 dogleg left • Par-4 dogleg right • A drivable Par-4 • Straight hole to multiple target greens
