World leader in golf instruction reaches unparalleled milestone
(Denver, CO: Sept. 2, 2011): This Labor Day weekend, an unassuming client will walk into a bay of a GolfTEC Improvement Center. For the golfer, it will be another 30-minutes of instruction with his Coach, but for GolfTEC, it will mark the biggest milestone ever reached in the history of golf: three million lessons taught by GolfTEC Coaches over the company’s 16-year history. And, every lesson taught has helped GolfTEC achieve an astonishing 95% success rate for players of all ages and abilities.
“We founded GolfTEC with the vision of bringing an enjoyable, organized approach to golf lessons,” said GolfTEC CEO and Co-founder, Joe Assell. “We had no idea that we would someday have taught three million lessons to more than 250,000 golfers. It is very rewarding to bring skills to people that will last a lifetime.”
There is a running ticker in the lobby of the GolfTEC Corporate Headquarters in Denver, CO and employees have watched in anticipation as GolfTEC taught over 400,000 just in 2011 through August. GolfTEC will give over 600,000 lessons in 2011 (by far the most lessons given by any instruction company), an average workload of over 1,300 lessons given by each of the 450 Certified Personal Coaches on staff. GolfTEC easily teaches more lessons than any other group in North America, with 150 Improvement Centers open from coast to coast
GolfTEC will reach this milestone with a mixture of excitement and humility.
“We truly are humbled that so many golfers place their game and their improvement in our hands,” said GolfTEC COO and Co-founder, Mike Clinton. “This milestone was achieved through the dedication of our Coaches, Managers, Franchise Owners and everyone at GolfTEC’s Headquarters. We’re already looking forward to four million!”
Innovations in Coaching technology, mobile applications and Improvement Center appearance will be implemented in the next year at GolfTEC. GolfTEC plans to increase global expansion as well as use teaching technology for other sports, such as tennis at the 2011 US Tennis Open in September.
