So how can you help your teenager become a more successful golfer? Give every
opportunity to develop their skills, experience and knowledge in golf. Becoming
successful at golf is not easy, so you need a solid team to give you help and
guidance to make it happen. At the Australian High Performance Golf Academy we
design programs to the specific needs of our students

Your Golf Support Team
To progress to professional golf, your teenager must understand what is required to
nurture their talent continually. Golf is as much a mental game. Ideally they need
one hour golf lessons every week (forty to forty five lessons per year) from the age
of twelve and they should be focused on a number of critical factors;

1. Good good grip produce good golf swings.
2. Start right and practice right; a golf swing that is in plane and a strong
rotation of the body and arms to generate sufficient club-head speed.
3. Junior golfers grow continually; they can suffer from postural problems like
slouching shoulders and bending from the waist not from the hips. Shoulder
stretching every day particularly in the back of the legs, (hamstrings) and upper
body (shoulders/chest) is vital.
4. Begin working with your teenager\'s attitude towards adversity. Develop effective
coping strategies to deal with setbacks and accelerate their progress through the
tough spots.
5. Get them into competition right from the beginning and teach them to enjoy the
idea of competing against others and also the added bonus of developing lifelong
friendships.
6. Encourage your teenager to study the rules and etiquette of golf and become
familiar with the most important and most common rules infractions so they feel
confident about any situation that may arise on the golf course.
7. Your teenager should spend sixty to seventy percent of their time working on
their short game and the rest of the time on their long game.

Find a good golf instructor early in your child\'s development and build a committed
relationship with them. Ask around and find a coach who is getting success with
junior golfers and interview them about their approach to teaching junior golfers.
I\'ve seen many parents chop and change golf teachers to the detriment of their son
or daughters golf progress. It is critical to start laying down a good golf
technique as early as possible and going to different teachers looking for the
ultimate golf lesson doesn\'t work and will lead to confusion and dissatisfaction.

The Australian High Performance Golf Academy runs courses throughout the year. For
