What is Cyclone and Smash Zone?
They are a series of activities kids will work through each session to develop basic skills.

 

In the cyclone the focus is on fundamental movement skills (FMS). We’ll have golf related themes we are working on each month, but the focus will be on fun and FMS. They will hit, throw, catch, run, jump, etc. You will definitely see development in their golf along the way.

 

The smash zone is specifically designed for kids 9-12 who are right in the sweet spot of sport skills development. The golf instructors will be feeding your kids full of helpful instruction for their golf skills. They will continue to do some of fun things we did in the Cyclone, but with more focus advanced movements. We’ll work to increase speed and get them to hit it far.

 

During this time we recommend they come once a week for their group time and as they get into the game supplement this with private lessons. They should be playing other sports, but not focusing too much on one. Let them play a season of soccer, then basketball, then baseball or softball. Get them into swimming, dance, gymnastics etc. to learn as much as they can and fully develop as an athlete.

 

Remember we are trying to develop the athlete at this stage not just the golfer. When they start to specialize they move to The Tournament Players group.
