We have gained qualifications in Club Management as well as Titleist Performance Screening, Trackman, Sports Psychology and Certified Putting Instruction qualifications.

As well as investing in the staff who work in RM Irvine Golf, we also continue to invest in the business by introducing the latest golf teaching equipment, which is designed to help our pupils get the most from their time with us. RM Irvine Golf most recent investments, include a Trackman 4 and a set of ‘My Swing Balance’ force plates.

Our approach to teaching is to combine the latest technological developments with an in-depth understanding of the human body, (physiological, bio mechanical and psychological) and then tailor this to the individual. This approach has become something of a mantra for all the team at RM Irvine Golf and has resulted in a succession of satisfied customers, improved golfers and a successful introductory programme for new and aspiring golfers.
