BEAUMONT, Calif. – The Southern California section of the Professional Golfers’ Association (SCPGA) today proudly introduced its newest partner, RFK Training. Among various section efforts to heighten awareness for golf fitness, RFK Training will co-sponsor the SCPGA Pro-Team Championship on November 1, 2010, at Friendly Hills Country Club, and also will provide future educational seminars for SCPGA Professionals in the areas of kinesiology, body optimization and movement efficiencies.
“The SCPGA is thrilled to partner with Roy and the entire RFK Training family since our organization is dedicated to growing the game and its many critical elements, including golf fitness,” said Tom Addis, the Executive Director and CEO of the SCPGA. “Not only will our SCPGA members directly benefit from Roy’s expertise, but he brings an important message to the sport that our community of professional instructors can take back to their students at all levels.”
Counting current PGA instructors, Canadian Tour professionals and elite-level college players among his many golf-focused clients, RFK Training founder and president, Roy Khoury, brings years of golf-specific expertise to a landscape where playing better and scoring lower remain top priorities. In founding RFK Training, Khoury combined a lifelong passion for golf with a deep understanding of body mechanics, particularly the efficiency of movement as it relates to the golf swing. His educational background in kinesiology and numerous accreditations, including a prominent certification from the prestigious Titleist Performance Institute, have made him an authority on the growing importance and acceptance of physical fitness within the sport of golf.
“I couldn’t be happier to be working with one of the most preeminent groups in professional golf,” said Khoury. My family, my business and my roots are all in Southern California, and I’m proud to align with such an iconic organization that for so many years has promoted a wonderful game within a part of the state that I call home.”
The hub of Khoury’s training activity is the cutting-edge environment of a highly stylized facility that breaks the mold of a traditional sports club or exercise center. While golf course and driving range evaluations are an occasional part of Khoury’s methods, it’s more common to find him at O.C. Fitness Solutions, a Newport Beach-based fitness destination that some would characterize as the intersection of science and an indoor playground. This is not your typical gym.
In fact, Khoury’s effective training methods and unique facility have caught the attention of prominent members of the SCPGA teaching community, including current clients Glenn Deck, the PGA Director of Instruction at Pelican Hill Golf Club, Eric Lohman, the PGA Director of Golf at Oak Creek Golf Club and PGA Professional K.
