Junior Christmas Party
This Saturday (12th December) between 10-1pm Keely and Benj will be running a junior Christmas party that all are welcome to.
The day will cost £10 per person and food is also included.
The day will consist of lessons on the range (inside and outside) and there will be competitions with prizes too!
It gets better too, each child will receive a wristband and vouchers to spend in the shop, and finally they'll get a chance to meet Santa and receive a present!
This is guaranteed to be a fun session so ensure you book your child in as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.
You're more than welcome to come in fancy dress to get yourself into the Christmas spirit.

Developing a safe fade
There's a big difference between a fade and a slice; the former is such a useful shot to have at your disposal. The slice? Not so much.
Now's a great time to work on your game with many of the season's biggest competitions consigned to the history books. Here are some tips for you to work on over the winter so you can find more fairways and greens. Come the spring, you'll be in great shape to take the honours.
The safe fade
Start by setting the ball slightly forward in your stance. This will force you to stay over the shot while also encouraging the ideal out-to-in swing path through impact.
Open your stance a fraction by aiming your feet, hips and shoulders a little left of your target. Again, this encourages the swing path that you're looking for.
During the swing itself, concentrate on making a strong hip and torso rotation through impact. If you have a good connection between your body movement and your arm swing this will work perfectly to get the club swinging on the correct path for a soft fade. Get it right and you'll take a healthy divot through impact.
Try this in practice and use it on course once you're comfortable. For more simple advice or lessons, come in and speak to the team. Click here to book your lesson.
