Coach Training Workshops
The Adaptive Golf Academy™ Coach Training Workshop© is an interactive day of sharing knowledge and experiences between Physical/Occupational and Recreational Therapists, Golf Professionals, Teachers, volunteer/mentors and adaptive players learning best approaches and coaching skills.
Our workshop delivers a comprehensive study for new coaches / mentors to become more comfortable and confident working with individuals with different abilities or any "adaptive need." Through self-adaptation exercises, our "coaches-in-training" will gain a new perspective on what modifications they themselves need to apply when working with students.
Upon completion, graduates are recognized as trained Adaptive Golf Academy Coaches.
