Beginner Golf Academy | Westport GC

The Beginner’s Golf Academy at Westport is a great way for men to get into golf. An introductory package will consist of 8 weekly sessions for coaching. On completion, students can then consider joining the club. This Academy for golf beginners is a great way for you to try club membership, develop your game and play regular golf with other club members on a fabulous golf course.

With our offer of a Beginner Membership you can play any day of the week and can work towards achieving an official WHS handicap and then be able to join in club competitions if you wish to. It is also suitable for those of you who would rather not get too competitive and instead want to play golf in a sociable and fun way.
All coaching is provided by Westport Club Professional, Mark Magowan and fellow PGA Professional, David McQuillan throughout the year

1. Mens ‘New to Golf’ OFFER | 8 weekly session

Whether you are new to golf or have some experience playing, the basic fundamentals will be coached to guide students through the initial phase of golf learning. Content will also include an introduction to rules and etiquette with the final session taking place on the golf course (8 x 1 hour weekly sessions | €95)

2. Short Game School (Group)

When you need to reduce swing length, hit your shots onto the green and putting, are all aspects of your golf skills that require ‘short game’ coaching. During the weekly sessions, you will learn about pitching, chipping, bunker shots and putting (6 x 1 hour weekly sessions | €60)

3. Off the Tee (Group)

4. Individual session

A 60-minutes ‘Swing Analysis’ session is a great way to get personal coaching that is specific to your swing. Contact directly or use this form to schedule a session that is convenient to you (€50 with each 3rd session discounted by 50%)
