Golf Professional

Andrew Henare NZPGA Golf Professional Napier golf Club: I'm Andrew Henare the golf professional of the Napier Golf Club, with the start of spring upon us, I'm seeing whether your Golf Club would like the opportunity to have a golf professional attend your course over 5 consecutive weeks. I would like to run 5 x 90 minute clinics. I would love to bring as many potential members to your course, and to assist you in getting as many new golfers as possible to attend these clinics. I would supply all range balls / equipment for these clinics. All for $99 per person


The above offer from Andrew has potential to bring new members to the club. A new concept,. giving someone the chance to try the game, a bit like learning to drive, learn the basics first before you tackle the course. Seven and a half hours training before hitting the road sounds like a good idea. Obviously this requires numbers, and a club member to drive the concept, and assist Andrew as needed. Please contact myself or Brendan if willing to assist or if you have names of people interested in participating.


Good golfing, folks
