Questions parents ask

The honest answers.

  • We start from age 5 with soft equipment and finish at 16. There's no athletic prerequisite — we'll meet your child where they are.

  • No. We provide age-appropriate clubs for every session. If they decide to continue, our coaches will help you choose the right set.

  • Every coach is enhanced-DBS checked and safeguarding trained. The junior zone is separated from adult bays, and parents can watch from the lounge.

  • A 45–60 minute group session with a PGA coach. £15, no commitment. You'll get a short written summary of where your child is and what stage suits them.

  • Absolutely. The lounge looks straight into the bays. Coffee, wifi and a quiet corner if you want to work.

  • Free cancellation up to 24 hours before the session. We'll always try to fit you into another slot the same week.
