MISSION

It is the mission of the Tregnan Golf Academy to successfully introduce the game of golf to youth and provide them with the skills, knowledge and confidence to play the game throughout their lives.  The focus of the academy will be to reach out to young people from urban areas who have little or no exposure to the game by making the Academy accessible, affordable and enjoyable.

GOALS

The goal of the Tregnan Golf Academy is to enroll a minimum of 1000 young people per year in instructional classes.

In addition, our goal is to retain 50% of these participants for additional classes and programs offered at the Academy or at programs offered at golf courses run by the Department of Recreation and Parks.  The Tregnan Golf Academy strives to become the preeminent golf training facility in Los Angeles, serving the largest number of young people from urban and low income communities.

HISTORY OF TREGNAN GOLF ACADEMY

A few years ago, recreation officials in the City of Los Angeles recognized the need for greater golf opportunities for youth.  They envisioned a place dedicated to young people, where youth could learn the game of golf, have fun and be safe.  From this dream came the opportunity of a lifetime - the Tregnan Golf Academy at Coolidge.

Built entirely by private donations and foundation grants, the Tregnan Golf Academy  is a state-of-the-art training and practice facility designed for youth.  The Tregnan Golf Academy offers:

The Tregnan Golf Academy has teamed-up with the Los Angeles Junior Chamber's LPGA-Urban Youth Golf Program to provide the best quality golf instruction available.  All instruction at the Academy will follow the highly successful Steps to Success© curriculum used by the Urban Youth Golf Program for over 12 years.  This five-level program advances young golfers to higher levels based on the ideals of safe, fast and courteous golf.

PROGRAMS

The Tregnan Golf Academy is open to girls and boys ages 7-18, regardless of their golf skill level.  The primary focus is introduction to the game and progressive levels of instructional classes.  The Academy features a variety of additional programs including open practice time, clinics, camps, tournaments, team play, club repair, career development, discounted range fees at the Academy, and reduced green fees at local public golf courses in Southern California.
