 HIGH SCHOOL PREP / PLAYER
CO-ED COMBINE
(13 – 18 yrs. old)


P. B. G. A.’s unique High School Prep (preparation) / High School (team) Player classes offer a
CO-ED setting in which 7th and 8th grade students train together with High School Team Players
to better prepare them for success at high school team tryouts, matches, or I.J.G.A. Tournaments.
Our “COMBINE” format generates a lot of new friendships, as well as some awesome athlete mentoring.
Our 7th and 8th graders are able to meet, train, and potentially compete with our older high school students,
many of whom may have already made their H.S. team, thus providing some valuable insights to them.
Students are initially evaluated, and then assigned to train/compete with players that possess
similar skill sets. Our most senior instructors work with these players to deliver in-depth instruction
regarding improvement of technical skills, pre-match preparation as well as a substantial
amount of on-the-course coaching regarding playing competitively or under match conditions.
Each day, one hour of skills instruction is followed by either a set of short-game skills competitions or
simulated match-play out on the course. Students are taught how to develop a pre-round routine
consisting of warm-ups, stretching, chipping and/or putting practice, playing nine holes of simulated
match conditions (with coaching observation). The final week of the series culminated with a
“Tournament Quality” golf experience; foursomes on-the-course, stroke play... for the trophy!
