Following a previous episode with Kate Tempesta, let’s continue the topic of coaching the very youngest golfers. How early does your program start?

My guest – Nicole Weller (@Stick2Sports, website).

I wrote Stick to Sports: Let’s Play Golf because I watched adults try to teach kids in an adult manner. The kids aren’t developed that way yet to understand it.

Nicole Weller is the Head Teaching Professional at The Landings Club (Savannah, Georgia, US). She is also the author of a children’s golf book Stick to Sports: Let’s Play Golf and flashcard memory game Match Play Golf (more information on both).

Nicole is also a co-founder of a unique golf coach certification Little Golf T.R.A.I.N. that focuses on effective early-learning environment for children ages 2-5, providing coaches with education and turn-key resources to run sessions with this age group.

Here is a selection of things we discuss in the interview:

Little Golf T.R.A.I.N. is organising a live Training Workshop during PGA Show Week on Tuesday, January 23 2018- check out the website for details.

Also, good news for European Coaches – there is a Little Golf TRAIN Certification seminar coming up in Italy (Milan) on 4-5/03/2018. Check out the details.
