What to test
We believe a well-programmed golf lesson should have a
positive influence on juniors’ performance and at the same
time it is critical to evaluate it in a measurable and accessible manner. The following criteria were carefully developed based
on our lesson contents.

How to test
Signature Golf Skill-based Criteria consist of qualitative test for the fundamentals and quantitative test for the performance. Also, an attitude & manner criterion is highly related to everyday class participation, such as attendance, homework, attire,
reward stickers, etc.
When to test
Every 4th week of the lesson in each month is
a performance day when juniors can show their
performance. Monthly performance tracking with
coach comments will help
juniors improve their performance as well as motivating
themselves through goal-setting.
New juniors should take their placement tests
on the performance day for the following month registration.
Level Classification
We classified juniors into 5 levels based on the
performance test. Currently our group lesson covers from
ROOKIE to CHAMPION.
All juniors who successfully complete each level will receive a certificate of achievement.
ROOKIE 1 with khaki cap
Introducing the game of golf and basic movement and skills for juniors who are first golfers. They will learn the basic of the golf swing such as set-up, posture, stance, alignment, grip and so on.
They become ROOKIE 2 when they understand the basic
fundamentals of the golf swing.
ROOKIE 2 with khaki cap
Will continue to learn the swing and putting, moreover,
introducing chipping. This stage is typically the longest stage
juniors will stay in and for any golfers, short game is the
hardest part of the game.
They become PLAYER when they pass the performance test. Also,
they should be able to distinguish the difference between a pitch
and a chip and when to use it on the course. Besides, juniors
should be able to hit off the turf without a tee.
PLAYER with white cap
Getting ready for playing on the course. They are able to manage
on-course experience for at least 3 holes with advanced movement and skills.
They become CHAMPION when they are able to pass the performance test which may prove their on-course performance.
CHAMPION with blue cap
Introducing bunker play and specialty shots. This level should
focus more on the course and using what you have learned in
previous levels.
They become MASTER when they understand when and where to use the specialty shots. Also, they are able to pass the performance test which may prove their tournament-ready performance.
MASTER with black cap
Introducing tournament play. During this level we will
help juniors build up confidence and in-depth knowledge
about the rules of golf and the proper manners.
