COACHING
Coaching Philosophy
My philosophy with my coaching is to work with my students to understand their goals from golf.
We work together to create a realistic plan and I provide bespoke training and support which will enable them to achieve their goals and play their best golf. Clients will get individual training, personalised practice plans and drills specifically designed to improve their game.
Every person’s golf goals are personal and unique, training plans and coaching should be too.
As a certified Leadbetter Coach, I work to the globally agreed values in my golf coaching:
- Those who dare to teach should never cease to learn. I believe in personal development, continual learning and improvement.
- Strive for simplicity. As a coach I know a lot, as a good communicator I only need to say a little to get my message across.
- Dedicated to golf. Everything relating to the Leadbetter brand encapsulates immense attention to detail; the Leadbetter name allows me to be associated with excellence.

Online coaching is more versatile than in-person lessons. You will be asked to film a down the line swing and a face on swing then you upload them to Skillest and within 48 hours you will get the bespoke analysis back from me. You will also get drills specific to the areas we want to work on. The lessons and drills stay permanently in your app so you can always reference back to them.
Online coaching is versatile for the client, you can film your swing at a time and place that is convenient for you, no longer are you at the behest of the coach’s gaps in diary. Your lessons are saved on your app so you can access your learning whenever you want, ensuring it gets embedded. You get to work at your own pace which can make the learning much quicker. Online coaching can also be more personal as you get direct access to your coach with direct messaging through the app, you get personalised drills and training plans all saved on the app for access whenever you need it.
The modern way is using technology and online services to deliver coaching in a way that is far more versatile for the client and no longer reliant on a coaches diary. The client can access the library of lessons whenever they want on the go to ensure the learning is even more embedded.
All my clients get a free no obligation zoom call where we can discuss your goals, and areas of your game that you would like to improve.
All you need to get started is a smart phone with a camera that can take video and the Skillest app. https://skillest.com
I also recommend the Upgame app so we can track your stats and build a plan based around your needs. I can explain how this works as we move through our journey.
As with all things, there are many ways to become a golf coach. I chose to do my training through the Golfzon Leadbetter University. David is one of the greatest coaches ever to coach the game and he personally designed the courses.
All Golfzon Leadbetter University Certifications are online learning modules designed to teach industry professionals how to increase player performance through a deep understanding of the various teaching disciplines. I completed the Instructor Certification which is the most holistic and in-depth training programme. The Leadbetter Instructor training programme includes content from the Associate, Technical, Physical, Mental and Leadbetter kids’ certifications along with a number of courses that are exclusive to coaches on this course.
From a personal perspective, I wanted to learn how to become a coach without losing my income, lifestyle and undertake a course that recognises my work experience and skills.
