SGF PGA/LPGA Staff Instructor Program

Become a Part of Another Golfer's Future

As a golf professional, your qualifications and know-how are needed as an SGF Lead Staff Instructor or Assistant Staff Instructor. Through the coaches you train, your influence will help aspiring young golfers become great players and great citizens.

 
Coaching the Coaches

As a Staff Instructor, you will train individuals who have the desire and commitment, but not necessarily the knowledge or skill to teach the game. You will instruct coaches, PE teachers or counselors using SGF's Golf Coach Education, Training and Certification Program, while adding your professional experience.

Our mission is not to develop professional instructors, rather to educate and equip coaches to better conduct and administer their programs. The SGF Staff Instructor Program is the means to provide the coach with professional teaching assistance. This is a great opportunity for the professional to gain MRS credits and develop future lesson income while also providing a worthwhile service to the community.

 

SGF has the Program that Works!

SGF has developed a three tier academic program of instruction designed to provide a curriculum that is appropriate in scope and depth as well as reasonable in terms of time required and cost to participants. The program will include:

Classroom Instruction

Hands-on Training

Practical Exercises

Examinations

   

Continuing education through clinics and workshops will be offered for professional growth and will be required for periodic re-certification.

Professionals selected for Lead Staff Instructor positions will receive home-study materials to familiarize them with the necessary procedures and formats to conduct SGF workshops and in-service training sessions. These workshops will be held regionally, therefore permitting the instructor easy access and minimal time away from their primary responsibilities. Should the instructor be asked to attend a workshop at a distant site, expenses will be provided.

Assistant Staff Instructors will also receive similar home-study materials for continuity in the SGF training program
