Beginner Clinic at the Arnold Palmer Golf Academy at Bay Hill
This clinic series is designed for beginner and new golfers who want to get more comfortable before playing on the course or playing a full 18 holes. It will cover the basics of golf right from the beginning - what to do when you arrive at the course, how to drive a golf cart, simple etiquette as well as swing basics. If you have played a few rounds of golf but still consider yourself a beginner golfer, this clinic is still for you.
It will be taught by John O'Leary, PGA Professional for more than 20 years, and Director of Instruction at Bay Hill Club and Lodge.
The clinics will run for three consecutive weeks starting on Saturday, May 17th. Each clinic will last for an hour and 20 minutes starting at 1:30pm. If you attend all three weeks, this is a total of four hours of instruction. You can take the whole series or attend an individual clinic. Each week will build on the previous session so we suggest attending the whole series if you're able to.
