1.Getting started (Level 1-3)
There are 3 sub-categories. Each category
is broken down into 3 levels (Levels 1-3, new/developing golfers). In these
levels, golfers will go through fundamental movement skills, swing shapes
(basic to advanced), short game practice (basic to intermediate), SNAG golf, on
course training and general rules/etiquette.
Level 1 is the introductory level where
new golfers will focus on fundamentals and get a feel for hitting shots using
SNAG equipment as well as regular junior clubs. These golfers will be
introduced to generic short game techniques and taught basic etiquette and rules.
Typically, after going through 10 sessions with a coach, the golfer will be
given a skills assessment to complete before graduating to level 2.
Level 2 is the stage where golfers will
move into using regular clubs and focus on fundamentals, functional movement
skills, short game practice including bunker play. Rules and etiquette will
also be taught by the coach followed by a skills assessment.
Level 3 is where the golfer will be
prepared for attaining a PC (proficiency certificate). The focus will be on
swing mechanics (with video analysis) as well as the long game, which includes
using a driver/fairway wood/hybrid. Exposure on the golf course will also be
introduced where golfers will learn golf rules applicable to the PC test and
get a feel for general scoring. Other parts of the game such as short game will
also be taught. Before moving on to getting a PC, golfers will have to pass a
skills assessment.

2.Let's play (Level 4-6)
In these levels, golfers will be prepared
for attaining a valid golfing handicap (level 6). Golfers will work on
tightening up swing mechanics, physical training to enhance speed and agility,
fundamental movement skills, short game practice (intermediate to advanced), on
course training, rules/etiquette (intermediate) in preparation for attaining
handicap. Each golfer will also be introduced to diagnostic training aids such
as trackman/flightscope, super speed sticks training, CAPTO (putting sensor).
A level 4 prerequisite will be having a
PC. This level caters to golfers who have just gotten a PC and have little
experience playing on the golf course. There will be more focus on swing
mechanics, basic strength training and short game mechanics. The golfer will
have to pass a skills assessment to graduate onto the next level.
Level 5 would be an advanced PC level,
where golfers would have had more on course practice exposure. They will be
closer to attaining an official handicap. Swing mechanics, rules and etiquette
at an intermediate level will be taught along with strength and conditioning
training. Lessons on course will be part of the program to prepare the golfer
for the handicap test. Only upon passing their skills assessment, will the
golfer then be able to take the handicap test.

3.Building a Champion (Level 7-9)
This category caters to golfers who will
look at honing their skills to becoming competitive. The prerequisite to this
level (level 7) will be a valid handicap index of 10 and below. The intensity
of training will heighten. Golfers will learn shot-shaping skills, mental
training, advanced short game techniques, advanced physical training to enhance
speed and agility, various skills assessments, goal planning and tournament
preparations.
To qualify for level 8, juniors will have
to undergo a comprehensive skills assessment, or represent his/her country (locally,
Development Squad).
The prerequisite to entering level 9
would be to represent his/her country for major competitions, such as, SEA
games, Asian Games, APAC championships (ie: National team/elite squad).
What happens after this level would be
the option to explore turning professional and competing internationally or
even exploring the option to have a career in coaching through internship
programs at The Golfing Lab.
