This programme is designed especially for women who are new to the game and want to learn in a friendly, small-group setting.
You don’t need:
Equipment
Experience
To know the rules
To come with a friend (although, you're more than welcome to)
Many of the women joining will be starting for the first time too.
For just £20 per person, you’ll enjoy:
PGA coaching in small, relaxed groups
All equipment provided
The chance to play real holes on our parkland course
Tea, coffee and pastries in the clubhouse
A relaxed Q&A session
An introduction to how you can continue playing — only if you’d like to
This is about enjoying the experience — not being perfect.

We know that many women are interested in playing golf, but feel unsure about walking into a club environment alone.
So we’ve created something different.
A structured, welcoming introduction where everyone starts together.
A chance to:
Step outside the usual routine
Enjoy gentle movement in the fresh air
Meet like-minded local women
Create something in your diary that’s just for you
Golf is social.
Golf is outdoors.
Golf is something you can grow into at your own pace.
📅 Wednesday 15th April | 10am–2pm
📅 Sunday 3rd May | 11am–3pm (SOLD OUT - Apply to Join Waitlist)
Each session is limited to just 10 ladies to keep things relaxed and personal.
You’re very welcome to come on your own - or bring a friend along.
After you submit your interest:
We’ll be in touch to confirm your preferred date
Answer any questions you may have
Arrange payment (£20 per person)
And reserve your place
If you enjoy the session, we’ll also explain the simple ways you can continue playing and becoming part of the club — with no pressure or obligation.

We make it easy to get into golf — from what to wear and what to bring, to simple tips on golf instruction and session plans. Everything you need is here in plain, friendly language.
We’ve gathered some super helpful content and resources just for beginner golfers, so you’ll be ready to play the course and enjoy the game in no time! Just remember, the golf community is super supportive, so embrace the adventure in trying something new!
– Sessions are relaxed, friendly and designed for complete beginners
– You’ll usually be in a small group with others who are also new
– A qualified coach will guide you step by step
– Sessions typically last around 60 minutes
– There’s no pressure to be ‘good’ — it’s all about having a go
No, you don’t need to buy anything to get started.
Most introduction sessions provide clubs and balls, so you can simply turn up and give it a go. If you enjoy it and want to continue, you can look at equipment later, but there’s no rush and no pressure.
You don’t need special golf clothes to start. Comfortable, everyday clothing and trainers are absolutely fine for beginner sessions. The most important thing is that you feel relaxed and able to move easily.
Coaches can support you when you’re brand new
Everything is explained clearly and simply
You’ll learn at your own pace
There’s no pressure to perform or compare yourself to others
Everyone starts somewhere — sessions are designed for beginners only.
That’s completely normal. Coaches are there to help, not judge.
No — these sessions are specifically for people just starting out.
Beginner sessions are affordable and designed to let you try golf without a big commitment. Taster sessions offer great value — expert coaching, equipment provided and a welcoming environment.
Complete the short form below and we’ll be in touch to secure your place.
