SA Golf Institute at The River Club, Cape Town

The Southern African Golf Institute is situated at River Club in Observatory, Cape Town. Their coaches are PGA qualified and personally trained by our Golf Director, internationally renowned coach Grant Hepburn. Grant has trained coaches around the world and is vastly experienced at passing on his knowledge in a way that allows coaches to have a thorough understanding of how to help golfers improve quickly and effectively.


I took some time out and paid them a visit today! What stood out for me is that everybody at the Institute are professional people and dedicated to your golfing needs. They provide private tuition as well as a host of other options from group coaching to full time coaching. They also offer you the opportunity to make golf your career through a PGA Diploma course and other options providing education alongside world class golf coaching.


PGA DIPLOMA

The three year PGA diploma offered by the SA Golf Institute in partnership with Cape Peninsula University of Technology, is recognised in over 40 countries across the world, and is specifically designed for individuals wanting to build a career in golf. 

Coaching is provided by world-renowned Director of Golf, Grant Hepburn, and his team, on an individual and group basis, while the Cape Peninsula University of Technology provide education and lectures on subjects specific to the PGA Program, as well as various additional subjects that may be of interest to students. With world class coaches and experts in sports psychology, golf fitness and life skills, the SA Golf Institute prepares its students for a playing career in professional ranks. 

During the course of study amateurs retain their amateur status ensuring that they can compete on provincial and national level before electing to turn professional. For those who don’t make it as a tour playing professional, the PGA subjects prepare and qualify students for a career in the golf industry, which may include green keeping, club management, events co-ordination, coaching, retail, golf tourism, course architecture, consulting, and tournament officiating. The PGA of SA is affiliated to the PGA’s of Europe and the PGA qualification is internationally recognised. 

The SA Golf Institute will also be introducing a Golf Gap Year in 2013 - a one year golf certificate and golf program - including three subjects at Cape Peninsula, membership at The River Club Driving Range and the coaching program, designed to give players a chance to not only work on their game but to study some of the PGA subjects, and this certification counts as credit towards the PGA Diploma, should they wish to continue their studies.

The perfect "golf bag" or corporate gift


Gone are the days of carrying a tour bag onto the range or 5 loose clubs uncomfortably under your arm. Going to hit a few balls after work or playing your local mashie course will be more fun with the Rangeholder. For the Corporates that can't think of unique gifts for clients or colleagues, look no further than the Rangeholder with unique branding possibilities. 


I tested this product on the driving range and mashie course and it works perfect, carries well over the shoulder or in hand. The little bag on the side offer enough space for my wallet, car keys and spare golf balls! Retailing at only R380 inc vat this "little golf bag" is very affordable and perfect for any golfer in so many ways! 


Rangeholder is sold in over 25 countries and continues to spread throughout the golfing world – and it is now in South Africa!

ORDER NOW

"With Rangeholder you place your chosen five golf clubs plus any small items you normally carry – mobile phone, car keys, golf glove, sunglasses, wallet, etc into the pouch that comes attached to the base of the Rangeholder. When you go to the driving range, mashie course, practice ground or 9 hole golf course, you turn up looking very professional and organised. There is a fitted strap that is included in the Rangeholder pack, this strap enables you to carry the Rangeholder complete with your five clubs."


"Rangeholder has four little legs that help to your clubs off the ground this helps to stop them from scraping and ensures that they do not get wet if the ground happens to be wet or damp. Many people have commented on how free they feel with Rangeholder – no more full pockets and no more hassle trying to carry five loose clubs and a basket of practice balls, they just turn up and concentrate on practice."
