To begin safely and cheerfully, you should pass the course called Green Card. During the course coach will introduce you the history of golf, talks about safety requirements and the rules of golf. The Green Card course also has a practical part where you’ll learn different techniques and can have a practice on the range. At the end of the Green Card programme you can go on the course and to put recently learned knowledge into practice.
For a Green Card course you only have to take a good mood with you. But if you’ll take a family member, a friend or a good acquaintance with you as well, the bigger the joy will be. The course will give you all the equipment. You do not have to buy special clothes for golf at the beginning, because it is okay to wear sports shoes and all kind of trousers and polo shirts (exept blue jeans and usual T-shirts). It would be good to wear polo T-shirts.
The Green Card course usually lasts two days (5-6 hours each day), but can vary depending on the course. It is therefore always a good idea to check the course offers and feel free to ask for more information if necessary. It’s good to know that, depending on the package, courses often offer equipment discounts and free playing rights with the Green Card course. All this so that you can continue practising with confidence and pleasure after completing the course!
