Coaching Philosophy

"I believe in a commitment to improvement, and building on acquired skills through spirited competition. But just as important, I want my players to have fun and enjoy themselves. You don´t have to be a great golfer to be on my team -- just bring a positive attitude and a willingness to make yourself better."
