What our Academy students say
“I’ve been very passionate about golf for the past 8 years, as soon as I started playing, I fell in love with the sport and knew it something I wanted to do professionally. Part of what drew me to Middlesbrough College was the opportunity to train at the Golf Sports Academy. The coach at the Academy is really friendly and helpful, he always has great advice. I feel like our sessions are always very productive.”

“The coaching at the Golf Academy here is great! I’ve always had an interest in golf and loved mini golf growing up. My dad got me into golf around 8 years ago and I’ve played ever since.”
