Activator Training

The new Activator programme provides individuals with an interactive and practical training course that will enable them to support their PGA Professional introduce more people to golf.

What is involved in the training?

By the end of the course activators will gain a better understanding of:

• Practical non-technical training,
• Fundamental movement skills,
• Inclusion awareness,
• Teaching games for understanding,
• The role of the Activator vs the PGA Professional

Before being deployed activators should ensure that they have completed the Child Wellbeing & Protection in Sport (CWPS) course and are a member of the PVG scheme through their golf club/facility.

Who is the course for?

The Activator programme is for those who are:

• New to helping out with activities for new golfers,
• Interested to get involved with supporting activity
• A young volunteer, junior captain/vice-captain and would like to help your peers enjoy golf.
• An existing volunteer who lacks the confidence to actively support the PGA Coach at your club.

You don’t need a lot of golf knowledge or experience to attend, just a willingness to ‘help out’ at your club.

The course caters to those who anyone 14+ years old.

Once trained, you will be able to deliver golfing activity to your peers and school groups. However, coaching within a community setting will not be able to be conducted until the participant is at least 16 years old.
