Please indicate any Growth of the Game initiatives your facility/academy has launched over the past year (please give specifics on such programs):
Since launching Tim Foster Golf, I have focused on making personalized instruction accessible to golfers of all levels. During my first year, I provided approximately 40 complimentary lessons to introduce golfers to instruction and remove the barrier of committing to a paid lesson. I have now given approximately 200 individual lessons and built a student base of nearly 100 golfers, including beginners, juniors, women and experienced players. As an independent mobile coach, I also bring instruction to golfers at public and regional locations rather than requiring every student to come to one facility. My goal is to help golfers improve quickly, enjoy the game more and stay engaged with golf.

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
I keep students engaged by making instruction personal, simple and measurable. I begin by observing each golfer, identify the change that can make the greatest improvement, and give them concepts and drills they can feel, understand and repeat. Students leave with a clear next step rather than an overwhelming list of swing changes. I also offer full-swing, short-game, putting and on-course instruction so coaching can evolve with each golfer’s needs. Many students have returned for additional instruction, and continued improvement and enjoyment are the foundation of my coaching approach.
