Player Golf Development
Player Golf Development is split up into five areas. Each area is hugely important for the student who is a determined to improve through out the whole spectrum of the game: -
1. Motor skills
Body and Arm Movement throughout the range of shots required to play effectively. Developing positive disassociation and functional movements for your build, strength, flexibility and natural balance points.
You must know exactly what movements you are practicing and why.
Our Fault Finder will do this for you!
2. Mechanical arrangement
Address positioning (Starting Position). Arranging the body in a manner that allows FREE UNRESTRICTED MOVEMENT.
You must place your body in a position where you can gain the most from your movements.
Our Fault Finder will do this for you!
3. Proprioceptive development
Balance and coordination (sensing where your body is in space). Controlling your body movements and synchronising those movements require skills that can be learnt.
You need to develop your senses for swinging the golf club and understand what ‘timing’ is and how you achieve it.
Our Fault Finder will do this for you!
4. Physical Development
The ability to manoeuvre and control. (Golf specific screening is a highly effective way to assess a player’s mobility and stability sequencing).
Developing your control and improving your muscle and tendon range to enhance you efficiency and effectiveness of movement. This would be a development program.
We introduce you to this in your Fault Finder Analysis.
5. Injury Rehabilitation
When to rest and when to play (the dangers of practising and playing when injured).
It sounds obvious to say “when injured rest” however, athletes tend to be the worst patients and engaging in playing or practise sessions during rehab is very common.
Not only are you going to reduce your recovery period, but equally as damaging is the recruitment of different motor patterns and muscle firing mechanisms.
