Beginners' Golf Programme
The Beginners' Programme is run by the Asian Golf Academy and your professional golf coach is Darren Carroll (catch Darren on the Golf Focus TV programme on the Star Sports channel on Wednesdays). Lessons are available Tuesday - Saturday inclusive, and are conducted at the Nature Park Driving Range (formerly known as Bishan Driving Range (located at 601 Sin Ming Avenue, Singapore 575734).
The Beginners' Programme is designed specifically for those who have little to no experience in playing golf. Players are introduced to the easiest elements of the game, and then build up basic skills in each lesson until they are at a level where they can play competently on the golf course. A proficiency certificate (PC) will be awarded on successful completion of the Beginners' Programme, which involves reaching the required golfing standard, showing competence, and passing a straightforward rules and etiquette golf test.
The Beginners' Programme is for individuals, or put together YOUR OWN group of people (maximum 6 pax.) of a similar standard. It consists of a total of 10 hours of tuition (usually conducted once or twice a week) and includes a final 2-hour lesson on a 9-hole golf course. The timing of the ten-hour programme can be tailor-made to fit your schedule - one lesson per week is recommended, with self-practice in between - two lessons per week maximum.
