Junior Golf Advantage
Success in sport and life is not a matter of chance. It involves a conscious effort requiring both knowledge and commitment. Likewise, achievement and performance in sport is not entirely physical, technical, or strategic. As studies have shown, more often than not, an athlete’s mental game plays an equally important role in his or her success.
All coaches and athletes agree on this point, but typically they limit their mental conditioning efforts to inconsequential phrases — “stay positive, keep focused, play with heart, stay relaxed, etc.” Beyond this, little attention is devoted to the subject and that’s mainly because the vital role of mental conditioning is seldom fully understood or appreciated.

Course Management
It takes more than the correct technique to produce champion golfers; it takes mastering the art of managing oneself and the course. To this end, a significant amount of our student’s time is spent in a variety of golf courses under various conditions.
GAINMORE™ Golf have chosen a number of courses for their design, quality, variation and overall conditioning. By playing the selected courses, students have an opportunity to apply what they have learned on the practice tee and in class. During the course of the round, the instructor is there to encourage his/her students and to assist with specialty and scoring shots. Upon completion of the 18 holes, students fill out an evaluation form, which is used for a critical analysis of their overall performance. All pertinent statistics are recorded, and the rounds are discussed and analyzed with the student’s instructor.
Mind Advantage Conditioning
Mind Advantage conditioning, like any other conditioning, is an art that must be taught and practiced. Because mental conditioning is crucial to a student’s attitude toward performance, GAINMORE™ Golf has designed a powerful series of modules, run by professionals, and integrated into their teaching philosophy. Mental conditioning covers all aspects of a student’s life because it is the totality of personality that leads to peak performance.
Mental conditioning is crucial in addressing a student’s attitude toward practice and competition. It covers the more specific techniques that are used in course management and facilitates what is learned in practice to benefit performance.
