Scottsdale, Ariz. – May is “Player Development Month” at Troon-affiliated facilities and Troon Golf Academies around the world. Throughout the month, clubs and courses are increasing golf instruction and lesson opportunities for all levels of players, including hosting golf clinics, creating virtual/social instructional content, hosting an exciting Player Development Month Putting Challenge and more. 2022 marks the 10th year that Troon has celebrated May as Player Development Month as a way of introducing beginners to the game in a fun and educational setting, while also creating opportunities for existing players to improve.
Golf clinics vary by facility and range from free to $50 for adults, and free for juniors 17 years of age and younger. Instructional videos as well as a complete list of May Player Development golf clinics and activities are available at www.troon.com/player-development.
