White Eagle Golf Performance Academy LTAD Golf Program
The White Eagle Golf Performance Academy is an innovative approach toward golf improvement. Based on the principles of Long-Term Athletic Development (LTAD), and TPIJPC, we use physical and mental activities that are appropriate to a child's biological age.These Activities are challenging but rewarding. Young golfers will gain strength, quickness, speed, agility, balance and confidence. Most importantly, they will have a great time doing all of it! the "FUNdamental Cyclone" and the "S.M.A.S.H. Zone" is the programs core. Athletes will kick, hit, throw, putt, catch, and chip. There will be wrist release stations, strength building stations and stations where children will begin developing explosiveness. Built into each station are exercises and movements that enable junior golfers to learn the fundamentals of athleticism and golf instructors at the WEGPA teach young minds and young bodies how to be the best they can be, and we do it in an incredibly fun and engaging atmosphere.

Junior Golfers participate in a 90 minute session each week. The 90 minutes include a warm-up and cool down, team-building activities and up to 12 stations in the "FUNdamental Cyclone"or the "S.M.A.S.H. Zone" Each week’s 90-minute session takes the athletes through exercises and activities that develop and nurture their fundamental movement skills as well as their fundamental sports skills. And during each cycle, the athletes learn and eventually master a different theme, including - grip, alignment, posture and weight shift.There are four sessions in a cycle. During the fourth session of the cycle, the athletes are taken on the golf course for 90 minutes of on-course playing and instruction. Just like the Cyclone and S.M.A.S.H zones, our on-course instruction is skill appropriate. Some athletes will use drivers, wedges and putters. Some athletes will use tennis rackets, footballs and field hockey sticks. And some will use a combination of both. But all of them will use the skills learned and practiced during the other sessions
