How the assessment works
No tryout pressure, no pass/fail. The coach figures out where your junior is today and recommends a starting point.
Step 1
A relaxed welcome
It's a coaching session, not a tryout. The coach gets to know your junior: age, experience so far, and what you're hoping golf does for them.
Step 2
A look at fundamentals
The coach watches your junior swing, chip, and putt at their own pace. No score, no pass/fail, just a read on where they are today.
Step 3
A placement recommendation
You get a clear recommendation: the class package, membership, or private lesson track that fits your junior's level and goals.
Step 4
A clear next step
After the session, Teresa follows up to coordinate the day, time, coach, and location.
What parents usually ask
Does my child need their own clubs?
If your junior has clubs, bring them. If not, tell Teresa when you set up your session and we'll sort it out before you arrive.
What should my child wear?
Comfortable athletic clothes and closed-toe shoes. There's no dress code for the assessment.
Do parents stay for the session?
Yes, parents are welcome to watch. The recommendation at the end is for you as much as for your junior.
Is the assessment required?
It's required for most private lesson students 13 and up, and recommended for any new student, so we can place your junior instead of guessing.
Does buying the assessment schedule the session?
Not automatically. Your purchase reserves the assessment, then Teresa contacts you to set the day, time, coach, and location.
