PGA Level 1 Coaching License

Any interested players aged 16 or over can attend a PGA Level 1 training weekend so as to gain their Level 1 Coaching license.

Full funding is available through ClubGolf East Lothian in return for a commitment to 20 hours of voluntary coaching at an East Lothian golf club.

Please find further details online and circulate this to any players you think might be interested.

A number of Senior Pupils gained their qualification this season and it would be good to have more on board as role models for the younger players.
