Junior Lessons & Programmes
Coaching built around
your junior's ability.
"Every junior I coach is different — different ability, different temperament, different goals. That's why everything starts with the player in front of me, not a fixed programme. Ability first. Always."
Gary Cooke — Head Coach
Three junior coaching options are available at The Playing Academy — one-to-one lessons, the junior group programme and junior golf schools. Each is structured around the junior's ability, not their age. Gary coaches the player in front of him, whatever stage they're at.
