GOLF TRAINING
IJGA offers a team of expertly trained coaches
committed to elite golf training, bringing with
them years of industry experience and world-class
backgrounds. Our coaches will develop and
implement a coaching strategy to elevate
your game.
Jonathan Yarwood, Director of Golf, and his
coaching staff focus on developing strong skills.
Yarwood assists each instructor in aiding each
student’s ability to take practice skills to a
competitive tournament environment. Bringing with
them years of industry experience and world-class
backgrounds, our coaches will develop better
players, not just a better golf swing.
All coaching staff undertake an IJGA workbook
training program created and administered by
Yarwood. This program covers everything from
brand standards of operation to analysis,
communication, course management, child behavior
and many other aspects that contribute to
becoming a great teacher. There are three levels
starting with an overview level, moving into greater
depth of study in level two, culminating in master
level where a coach has to move the envelope to
create a new area of research and results relevant
to junior golf.
