THE ACADEMY AT DEL MAR
TPI CoFounder Dave Phillips says a few words about Coach Milo.
The Academy at Del Mar is a long-term athletic development program dedicated to instilling in children a love for the game of golf, an incredible amount of athleticism and to turn these children into amazing golfers.
Fitness professionals from MILO will design and provide fitness education and conduct all fitness portions of the practice sessions for the Academy.
Practice sessions are once per week for 1.5 hours. Every fourth week the young athletes will be taken to the golf course where they put into play all of the things they have learned during the practice sessions.
The monthly membership also includes:
- Growth tracking through Growmetry.
- Four medium buckets of range balls.
- Quarterly fitness and golf skills testing.
- 10% discount on junior products at the Golf Mart in Del Mar (restrictions apply).
The typical session will begin with a thorough warmup for the all of the athletes. Then, they will be paired up and sent to different stations where they will practice individual golf skills and fitness skills. The athletes will advanced to the next station after about five minutes. There is enough time in the class for the athletes to practice and play in each station twice. They will also play a game where they compete as individuals and sometimes as teammates. It is a 90-minute class that usually leaves the young athletes wanting to stay and play longer!
