What Athletes Are Saying
“When you’re practicing, you’re not alone. Your coach is always walking around so if you have any questions you just call your coach. They make sure that you’re always positive, and they treat you like a friend.”
“[The coaches] also help you with the mental aspect [of the game]. It’s a lot of player development and character development as well.”
“My coaches are not only mentors to me on the golf course, but they’re mentors to me outside the golf course as well. I’ve become more responsible while being at MMG. I’ve learned a lot of discipline and that’s what’s led to me to getting better. This sets me up perfectly to achieve my goals.”
