Hello to all the members at Castletown Golf Links

It is with great pleasure to be the new playing and teaching professional at the Club. I would like to thank the Vermeulen family for giving me the opportunity to be a big part of this magnificent golf club.

I started playing golf at a very early age, with my mother being a huge influence on my development, representing England and Great Britain and Ireland on numerous occasions. After a successful junior career winning County Championships, Faldo Series regional events and leading Millfield School to the England Schools Championship, I decided to turn professional at 18. I spent my winters in Orlando, working with on my game with world renown coaches such as Sean Foley and Gregor Jamieson, and competing on the Europro Tour in the summer months. I also competed on several other mini tours in the UK such as the Jamega and TP Tours.

I decided to move to the Island last September with my wife, Sara, and our 2 young children, and we joined the club straight away.

I have been very lucky to have been taught by some prestigious golf coaches and I look forward to sharing the knowledge I have acquired on the game with you, the members. I know how tough golf can be, and with knowledge of competitive golf, I know I can help with basic course management to significantly bring down your handicaps and improve your game. I will provide coaching on all aspects of the game, as well as on course tuition. I would like to offer all members a 45 minute introductory lesson for £15. Then I will set all follow up lessons for £25 for 45 minutes. With complimentary use of the new swing room facility and video technology, we can get to work on reducing your scores. I will also be making myself available to play with you, the members, as often as I can.

I will also be taking full control of the professional shop, stocking the items with my own accounts. With my wife's background in retail, we look forward to giving you a great experience. We will stock a wide variety of new and exciting brands, including Peter Millar, Daily Sports and Srixon to name a few.
