What Students learn
 

Our 3-week course offers beginner and experienced golfers expert tuition on the world-class facilities at the Duke's Course. 

On arrival, students will be split into groups of similar abilities so that they are learning with players of the same standard as themselves.

Beginner golfers will learn the rules of the game and cover all the basic skills and shots they need to confidently start playing and progressing in the sport. More experienced players will benefit from individually focussed attention to pinpoint the aspects of their game that they want to improve and perfect and learn more advanced skills.

Please note that students taking our golf elective will have two hours at the Duke's Course every afternoon. Advanced players will have time to play additional golf in the 3rd week of the programme.

Additional Golf

Students who have a low handicap and would like to play other courses in St Andrews can opt to miss some cultural trips to spend more time golfing. This is at an additional cost but allows more experienced golfers to maximise their playing time and take full advantage of some of the world’s best Championship courses. They will also have the chance to enter the ballot to play the world-famous Old Course.
