Virginia is heavily involved with all levels of golfer from beginner through to elite and representative players.

Her desire to help people capitalise on their potential has seen her develop a holistic approach to golf instruction focusing on game playing rather than swinging.

Virginia will simplify golf for you with proven techniques that take into consideration your individual learning style. Her philosophy encompasses ‘the integration of technical, physical, tactical and mental aspects to accelerate the learning process.’

SAM PuttLab analyses the 28 most important parameters of your putting stroke and displays the results in easy to understand graphic reports. Discover your individual strengths and weaknesses, and reduce your putts per round.

No matter how much you know as a coach, the information is only effective if you can get the message across. Being able to tailor my coaching style to suit the individual athletes will create an effective coach athlete relationship. Engaging the athlete is my responsibility. Investing time in communicating and understanding the needs of the athletes will see them achieve their best results.

I am committed to setting a higher standard as a Golf Professional by:

• Training essential golf skills not by model or method.
• Measuring and challenging the short game.
• Train mental toughness.
• Tailor practice for improvement.
• Clear and effective communicator.
