PHYSICAL EDUCATION
SNAG®
only has two clubs. The Launcher™ is used to launch, pitch and chip the ball.
Like a putter, The Roller™ is used to roll the ball toward the target. All shots other than
rolling (putting) are played off a mat and tee called the Launch Pad™. There are a number
of tools that SNAG®
uses to teach the correct way of playing golf.
SNAG®
stands for "Starting New at Golf”.
It is a fun game that is easy to learn and
can be played anywhere. SNAG®
contains
all the elements of golf but in a modified
form.
Falling somewhere between miniature golf
and regulation golf, SNAG®
is a proven
learning and training system.
Anybody can play and it's perfect
for inexpensive fun! The game has its
own simplified rules and terminology,
SNAGology as we call it, that adds fun to
the experience.
Play indoors or outdoors, at the beach,or
on the grass, it’s portable, so you can
make “The World Your Course!”
SNAG®
is well known internationally. In
the USA over 5,000 schools have SNAG®
programs – putting golf on par with other
sports such as basketball and soccer.
Why do you need the
SNAG®
Coaching Program?
There has never been a system dedicated
to the development of new players that
is both so easy to teach and learn. This
system integrates modified equipment with
instruction that makes the learning process
fun.
It is an excellent program for people new to
golf, that integrates the rules of golf and
personal life skills.
Our coaching systems are designed to be
scaled up as you grow. We offer small and
large group packages in three club lengths
for ages five and up.
Our most popular and versatile system is the
All Ages Coaching System. This offers clubs
in every size for every age of new learner
you may be teaching. The coaching system
comes in two sizes: Large and Small. This is
the system we typically provide to schools
and groups, because of the versatility it
provides when teaching a variety of ages in
one class.
