Why join SAOL?

The Professional at SAOL, Daniel Webster, has individual and group coaching packages designed to cater for every level of golfing ability from juniors to adults. The objective of his "starter" sessions is to give prospective members a taste of the game, leading on to playing a few holes and eventually having the opportunity to join as a member. Daniel and his team have a whole range of packages for the improvement of the "existing" golfer. Have a look at Daniel's webpage.
