Golf coaching is all about you and what you want to get out of your game. Here at Copt Heath Golf Club, we pride ourselves on being good listeners and aim to provide the best possible professional advice, whilst ensuring each lesson is tailored and enjoyable for the golfer.

Why Coaching?

Here at Copt Heath, we’re passionate about helping you play better golf.

Every golfer enjoys the game more when they’re hitting good shots and playing well. As your performance improvement partners, this is our mission for you.

Think back to your last few rounds and try to pinpoint an area that cost you shots…

Maybe, you had too many three-putts as a result of poor distance control? Or did you miss too many fairways meaning you had to chip out sideways? It could be that you play well in practice rounds with your friends but struggle to replicate that in competitions?

Through our experience 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.
