Beginna golf - What we do Beginna golf is a fun way for very young children to learn about and experience golf. Specifically aimed at pre-school to primary four age group Beginna golf is designed to stimulate interest in golf and provide development of basic skills. Beginna golf will open children’s eyes to the fun that can be had from golf and set them on the road to becoming golfers. Beginna golf utilises soft clubs and balls and will be based indoors but will not simply focus on the physical skill development of hitting a golf ball. The fundamental concepts of good golf will be tackled using a variety of games and activities in fun and interesting ways. For pre-school and primary classes especially, the technical coaching will be kept to a minimum with the emphasis placed on creating enthusiasm and interest in golf. As the children become older and more capable there will be more technically focused golf related games and activities employed. The goal is to promote the game of golf to children as a fun addition to the more traditionally played games at primary school age.

At Beginna golf the technical aspects will be introduced in a subliminal manner as part of these games so that the children do not necessarily feel they are even learning a specific movement for golf. For example: swinging a foam baseball bat at an upright obstacle in an attempt to knock it over creates the correct use of shoulder turn and weight transference that is required in a good golf swing. This movement is natural and does not require any detailed technical instruction yet it helps to programme the correct method for golf. Part of the secret of Beginna golf will be to create a desire in the children to return time and again because the sessions are simply good fun. Children of a young age can only cope with basic degrees of technical information and therefore this side of it will be a steady drip of the important aspects they require to improve their golf.
