Benefits of PGA Coach

• Teaching & Coaching – Provides coaches with tools to better teach and market their services to current and prospective clients.
• Golf Operations – Plain and simple, we know driving more play to your facility is key to creating a successful operation.  People who play better golf inherently play more golf – this comes with additional spending for other areas of the facility, too.
• Executive Management – Ultimately, selling to and retaining the customers who enjoy their time on the golf course will create added value to any facility – we want to make sure we are intentional and open in all of these relationships. Great coaching will retain customers and members who are able to develop those special relationships with their coach.

Why Use ADM for Teaching?

PGA Coach is designed to bring the American Development Model to the game of golf.  Every athlete is different, and therefore, every Coach should have the right skillset to teach the game and help every student become a life-long golfer.

The American Development Model was designed by sports scientists to help support a lifetime affinity to sports, and to develop athletes to their greatest potential. These principles align physical and psychological development stages, delivering appropriate skills and exercise at the appropriate time.  Creating positive experiences early will keep more players engaged and retained in our sport.  Learn More 〉
