Orlando, Fla. (Oct. 7, 2015) – One of Northern California’s most distinctive golf coaches, Tom Rezendes, has joined the exclusive group of instructors who make up the newly formed Golf Channel Academy.
Rezendes, the only Certified Golf Biomechanist in Northern California, is among the first first 65 of the game’s most influential and recognizable teachers coming together to establish a dedicated network of instruction facilities with the active support of Golf Channel, the game’s leading global multimedia and golf entertainment source.
“I’m very excited to be associated with the dynamic Golf Channel Academy,” said Rezendes, owner of Tom Rezendes’ NorCal Golf Academy, a state-of-the-art golf indoor training facility located in Walnut Creek, Calif. “This is a chance for golf instructors to work together, learning from one another and adopting best practices in both teaching and the business of teaching. I think it’s going to propel the coaches and coaching forward in a big way.”
Launched in April, Golf Channel Academy is the first network of its kind devoted to efficiently growing the business of golf instruction. With 64 charter locations already committed, Golf Channel Academy will be inviting additional coaches to become part of the network as it continues to grow.
By establishing the new Golf Channel Academy in Walnut Creek, Rezendes will benefit from a wide-spectrum of business consulting services and products addressing marketing, sales, technology and back-office solutions needs, as well as shared best practices across the network. Coaches also will have the opportunity to appear on instructional programming across Golf Channel’s television and digital platforms.
Students at the Golf Channel Academy in Walnut Creek will be able to track their progress using advanced software to measure specific goals under the direction of their personal coach.
“Golf Channel Academy has aligned the top coaches from across the country to run their business within a robust, collaborative operation,” said Todd Wilson, CEO of Golf Channel Academy. “Our members have a unique opportunity to tap into best practices and proprietary data that will assist each member instructor and academy operation to grow their business while operating under one unified brand.”
Rezendes attained his PGA Class A Professional status in 2011 and also earned a Golf Stroke Engineer Bachelor’s degree (GSEB) with The Golfing Machine. He has been playing golf since he was 11 years old and enjoys competing in Northern California PGA Section events. His many certifications include:
• Advanced Motion Measurement (AMM) Certified Instructor
• Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Certified Golf Instructor (Levels 2 & 3)
• TPI Certified Golf Biomechanist (Level 2)
• TPI Certified Junior Golf Coach (Levels 2 & 3)
