Q: Who
teaches the program?
A: Just like a typical
Physical Education Unit that is in your curriculum, you teach the program.
Ages Golf™ provides the tools to allow you to feel comfortable teaching
the program to your students.
Q: What
if I don't play golf?
A: Ages provides written,
visual, and video training for all instructors. This is a simplified
program that features easy to understand keys for your students, and
allows for instant success for even the youngest age groups. The equipment
provided, along with the simple training guides will have you feeling
comfortable teaching your students to golf... even if you don't play.
Q: What
is included in the program, and do we get to keep it?
A: Ages Golf™ provides a leased program that the
school brings in for 1-2 weeks. The program includes all of the equipment
you'll need to deliver this exciting and innovative program: Clubs, Balls,
Hitting Mats, Putting Targets, Chipping and Pitching Targets. Ages
delivers and picks up the equipment with no additional cost.
Q: Is
this program just for outside use?
A: In fact, Ages Golf™ program was designed specifically to be administered in the gym. We
feel confident that the equipment design is safe, easy to manage, and more
effective inside than out. Even in the smallest gyms accommodations can be
made to make this program a perfect fit. The surface of your floor is also
protected by our hitting mats - wood, tile, carpet, whatever floor surface
you have, is manageable.
Q: How
large can the class sizes be?
A: We have
accommodated double classes which have included up to 45-50 students in
the gym at one time. With class sizes this large, some of the opportunity
for repetition is compromised, but we don't feel that it is any different
than normal Physical Education units that operate in large class sizes.
Q: When
is the program available?
A: The program is
available at any time... even for summer-school programs. Availability is
seldom an issue.
Q: How
does the program measure up to "real golf?"
A: The
owner of Ages Golf™, Mike Heller, is a PGA member. This program was
designed with PGA criteria in mind. The equipment varies from traditional
golf clubs in size, but measures up in weighting, balance, and playability
for the object ball and target system that Ages employs. The transition
from Ages Golf™, to "real" golf is simple and easy.
