Golf

LeAF’s provide young golfers with a provision that develops their technical, tactical, physical and psychological aspects of their game. Students receive up to 10 hours of directed coaching time, across a range of disciplines and utilising state-of-the-art technology and facilities.

Our Lead Golf Coach, Gideon Hugo (EGTF), delivers a unique provision utilising the best of the local facilities to develop each individual player’s game. Students receive a varied provision including fantastic coaching, practice facilities and regular competitive tournament opportunities capturing statistics for analysis. We ensure a structured approach to each individuals needs and encourage and support self management across their academic, competitive and training schedules.

We are lucky to partner with Parley Golf Course who provide our students with the opportunity to analyse their technique in greater detail with access to the top of the range software and offering an all-weather multi-course golf simulator for the students to test their skills on digital courses.

In addition to this, students develop their putting, short game and range time and develop their tactical element of their games through competitive matchplay on the 9 and 18 hole course. Further to this, we develop the students’ performance lifestyle skills through nutritional and psychological workshops, alongside Talented Athlete Lifestyle Support (TALS) sessions with our High Performance athletes.

At LeAF Studio, we wish to prepare our Golf students for a future career within the sport and industry with excellent support and work experience opportunities. We are in the process of formalising trips and opportunities for our students to experience PGA tour events first hand, opportunities to develop their own coaching skills and an annual overseas Golf Tour.  Further to this, we continue to support our Golf students through applying to golf-specific Higher Educational institutions such as Tournament Golf College and scholarships to top American Universities.
