About Matthew

PGA member, elected in 2008

TPI Level 2 Junior Certified Eastern Chapter Michigan PGA Past President U.S. Kids Level 2 Certified Coach PCA Double-Goal Coach 2016 & 2017 Top 50 Kids Coach 2018 Top 50 Master Kids Coach

I put a high emphasis on teaching age appropriate skills, in addition to the importance of fitness and nutrition. I believe junior golf should be about having fun, while competing in competitions during clinics and applying what they have learned on the golf course. The goal is to develop core golfers that will have pathways to continue to play socially or competitively based on each individual’s desire.
