Teens To "Go-LF"

Teens To Golf - A new traveling golf program

We have taken our concept of "...a different adventure each day" and added a new swing to it - GOLF! In the past several years, the sport of golf has really taken off - especially with the youngsters. Just like amusement parks, ski resorts, beaches, ... each golf course is different. So, we have an exciting program that offers young golfers in the area a chance to challenge different courses each day! Our program will give young golfers the opportunity to play golf at different courses AND receive guided instructions from a PGA Member, Keith Robertson.

Keith Robertson, works directly with Mike Bender. Mike Bender is a Professional Golf Swing Coach in Florida and works with many Professional Golfers (Morgan Pressel, Lee Janzen, 2007 Masters Winner - Zach Johnson - just to name a few) and has created the MEGSA (Most Efficient Golf Swing Attainable). Keith has adopted Mike's teaching techniques and program. So, indirectly the kids in our program will be getting the same lessons as many of the professional golfers! You can find out more about the MEGSA program (and the "cage" training device) at www.MEGSAPPE.com. And yes, our kids will be getting in the “cage” too!

We are very excited to be working with Keith again this year. He and his team have been contracted to be the instructors of this great program. This program is NOT intended for beginners interested in learning how to play golf. The concept of this program is to work in refining skills, learning drills and having the opportunity to play at different courses under the guidance of a PGA Member.  If you are a beginner or interested in golf lessons, take a look at the Golf 4 Kids program.

Please read over the information and if you have any questions, please call us (301) 540-4356 or WRITE us.
