WINTER COACHING 2026/27

Build Your Game This Winter. Play Better Golf in 2027.

Great golf next season starts now.

If you want to make a genuine change to your golf, winter is the perfect time to do it.

During the playing season, it's very easy to fall into the cycle of having a quick lesson, finding a temporary fix and then heading straight back onto the course.

Winter gives us something much more valuable — time.

Time to properly assess your game.
Time to make changes.
Time to practise them.
And time to turn those changes into something you can trust when the 2027 season begins.

My Winter Coaching Programmes aren't simply blocks of golf lessons.

They are structured improvement programmes built around you, your golf and what you want to achieve.

Whether that's better ball striking, more distance, improved consistency, a sharper short game, more confidence or simply shooting lower scores, we'll create a clear plan to help you get there.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

Assess → Build → Practise → Perform

Every golfer is different, so every winter programme starts by looking at your game.

We'll establish where you are now, where you'd like to get to and which areas are having the biggest effect on your performance.

From there we'll build a personalised plan.

ASSESS

We'll look at your technique, ball flight, strike patterns and overall game to identify where the biggest improvements can be made.

Video analysis and coaching technology will help us understand exactly what's happening rather than simply guessing.

BUILD

Once we've identified the priorities, we'll begin making changes.

That could include:

• Swing technique

• Strike consistency

• Clubface and swing-path control

• Angle of attack

• Ball-flight control

• Speed and distance

• Wedge play

• Chipping

• Putting

• Course management

• Pre-shot routines

The objective isn't to build a "perfect" golf swing.

It's to build a more effective golf game for you.

PRACTISE

Knowing what to change is only half the job.

You'll be given clear drills and practice ideas so that you know what to practise, how to practise it and why you're doing it.

No more standing on the range hitting balls without a purpose.

PERFORM

As we get closer to the start of the season, we'll gradually move the emphasis from technique towards performance.

The goal is simple:

Take the improvements we've made during winter and turn them into better golf on the course.

⭐ WINTER PERFORMANCE — £375

Real Progress. Real Results.

MOST POPULAR

The Winter Performance Programme is for golfers who want to make a significant improvement to their game before the 2027 season.

With six individual coaching sessions, we have the opportunity to go much further than simply identifying a swing fault.

We can assess your game, make changes, give you time to practise them, review your progress and continue developing your technique throughout the winter.

We'll also look beyond the full swing.

Because hitting the ball better is great — but ultimately the objective is to shoot lower scores.

Your programme includes:

• 6 × 1-hour individual coaching sessions

• Initial game & swing assessment

• Personal winter improvement plan

• Video swing analysis

• Technical swing development

• Between-session video feedback

• Short-game & putting development

• Personalised practice drills

• Pre-season assessment

• Priority booking

Who is it for?

This is the programme I'd recommend to the golfer who says:

"I really want to improve my golf this winter."

Six sessions give us enough time to create a proper coaching journey rather than a series of isolated lessons.

WINTER ELITE — £495

The Complete Winter Programme.

This is for the golfer who wants to use the winter to make a serious transformation to their game.

The Elite Programme gives us the time to look at the complete golfer rather than concentrating purely on swing technique.

We'll work on the areas that have the greatest influence on your scoring and develop them throughout the winter.

That could mean rebuilding an area of your swing, improving your wedge game, sharpening your putting, developing better practice habits or learning to make better decisions on the golf course.

And importantly, we'll work on transferring those improvements from the practice area onto the course.

Your programme includes:

• 8 × 1-hour individual coaching sessions

• Comprehensive game & swing assessment

• Personal winter improvement plan

• Video swing analysis

• Ongoing video feedback

• Technical swing development

• Short-game development

• Putting development

• Personalised practice programme

• On-course coaching session

• Pre-season assessment

• Priority booking

Who is it for?

The golfer who doesn't simply want to "keep their swing going" through winter.

It's for someone who wants to arrive at the start of the 2027 season with a better swing, better skills, a better understanding of their game and more confidence on the golf course.

WHAT CAN WE WORK ON?

Your programme is personalised to your game, but areas we can work on include:

Full Swing — technique, strike, consistency, clubface control, swing path, angle of attack, ball flight, speed and distance.

Short Game — pitching, chipping, bunkers, different lies, distance control and shot selection.

Putting — technique, start line, pace control, green reading and putting routines.

Performance — practice structure, pre-shot routine, course management, decision-making and taking your range game onto the golf course.

Equipment — making sure your equipment isn't making the game harder than it needs to be.

WHY START NOW?

Imagine arriving at the first competition of 2027 knowing that you've already spent months working on your game.

You've made the technical changes.

You've practised them.

You've tested them.

And you've got a clear understanding of what you're trying to do.

That's very different from picking the clubs up in spring and thinking:

"Right... I suppose I'd better sort my swing out."

Don't wait for the season to start before improving your golf.

Start now. Build it this winter. Play better in 2027.
