Arriving the day before the students and instructors enjoyed an evening together and the time to relax and get to know each other before the intensive 2 days began.
Phil Kenyon guided the team through the first day, which was a long working day leaving the guys visibly tired in the evening. The programme consisted of a seminar in the morning of the first day, educating the professionals in the coaching philosophy of the Harold Swash Putting School. In the afternoon the students spent time out on the putting green. Each students putting stroke was analysed by the instructors and worked on using the high speed video, coaching software and SAM analysis tools, to allow the coach to understand how the Harold Swash Schools coaching philosophy is applied and how they implement technology to deliver the highest standard of coaching.
The evening allowed the group to relax and share each others experiences from the day and indeed the experiences each coach faces in their different markets and cultures.
The second day was a combination of seminar and practical based sessions looking at custom fitting techniques and video analysis.
After that Michel Monnard took the Golf Teaching Professionals through some of the important admin-work, showing the coaches how the SwashPuttingSchools-website works and how it can benefit them, as well as marketing and PR issues. Then the instructors had a more indepth look on the Software which is used for the golf lessons.
All in all the programme was very satisfying for both instructors and students with the Swash Team getting some very positive feedback from all those that attended.
We are sure that all these new Accredited HSPSE Instructors will now be better equipped when giving their putting lessons. More importantly however the people who benefit the most will be their customers. They are now able to benefit from the over 40 years of Putting experience from Harold Swash. And this method is PGA Tour Proven!
