Golf? You’re probably thinking what does How 2 Mom know about teaching kids how 2 golf…Well, my husband, Brian is a Golf Professional. That’s right, he teaches people how 2 golf for a living! He also specializes in teaching Kidz How 2 Golf! Every year he hosts Junior Clinics for Kidz. After watching him for years teaching our kids, and others, I have picked up a couple of tips! I am sharing those here, as well as sharing where you can send your kids to learn how to golf…
Keep it Simple
Focus on one rule and/or skill at a time. Golf can be complicated but we want kids to be able to practice one thing at a time!
Make it Fun
Too often people get worked up after a bad shot or two, making golf too serious. Kidz love to have fun. Just like reading, we want them to want to golf! Make it fun. Lots of positive affirmations, and play some games! Brian loves to use hula hoops and targets to make it fun and competitive!
Appreciate the Game
Many don’t realize this, but the game of golf is incredible for many reasons. It’s a game you can play at any stage of life, unlike most other sports. It’s also a game that teaches some pretty important qualities like honesty and integrity. My husband always says if you really want to get to know someone, play a round of golf with them! I couldn’t agree more!
