After being introduced to golf by my father at the age of
10, I rapidly grew to love the game, and spent every spare
minute working how to be good at it. At age 15 I won the
Ballarat District open championship and represented the
state of Victoria, playing in representative matches and was
playing from a three handicap.
Years
later, Drummond Golf, a large retail golf chain, offered a
manager’s position at their Ballarat store and I was lucky
enough to gain the position due to my strong retail
background and golf skills. From there I learned the basics
of teaching golf and it gave me the desire one day to find a
way to do it professionally.
I completed the AGTF certification course
in 2001 and have never looked back! From teaching privately
at golf clubs and driving ranges very successfully, I
received an opportunity to be an instructor to run a
certification course for the AGTF. Since then I have
conducted numerous certification courses as chief instructor
for the AGTF.
