Why Coaching?
FROM BEGINNERS TO SCRATCH PLAYERS, ALL GOLFERS CAN BENEFIT FROM ONE-TO-ONE SESSIONS.
Coaching is my passion; I get a great sense of pride helping my clients. I want everyone from the absolute beginner to the low handicap competitor to improve their game. One-to-one lessons are the best way to get results on a specific aspect of your game, and I have a range of bespoke packages to suit your needs.
With a private teaching bay, I’m perfectly positioned to offer first class tuition in an environment designed with practice and learning in mind.
All lessons and packages are customised to your ability and your personal goals and make use of Hudl app for video Analysis, GC2 Launch monitor to track and record your shots, and The Proagenda platform where you can manage and track all lesson bookings, packages and payments. Once registered you will have a personal Coaching/media page to hold a history of all lesson notes, practice plans and video clips.
Through our experiences in the game and our PGA education, we appreciate that every golfer is different. That’s why we offer a range of lessons and packages to suit everyone.

Nick Murtagh - PGA Golf Professional
I focused on being a PGA Teaching Professional after my competing days and have been very fortunate to play alongside and receive coaching from some of the Worlds leading Professionals gaining knowledge, tips and great insight thereby encouraging me to create a platform to share. I coach all types of player from taking the beginner on their journey, to a single figure handicap player who is looking for the small details to improve and lower scores or the elite amateur looking to reach their full potential.
Rhys Ap IoLo - PGA Golf Professional
I turned professional in 1997, as an amateur I was an accomplished county golfer and a member of the Wales junior squad in 1994 & 1995. Prior to Joining the Downshire Golf Complex, Bracknell in 2005 I worked at Shrewsbury GC, Northop Country Park GC, Basingstoke Golf Centre, Alresford GC and Sandford Springs GC. I still compete and enjoy some successes as a player. As a coach I have developed comprehensive knowledge of all areas of the game. I coach players of all abilities from a complete beginner taking their first steps in to the game, to single figure and scratch golfers looking to make the small gains to improve consistency and reach their full potential
