Junior High Performance Development
Personalized development for committed junior golfers who want to take their game further. We help players build their skills, practice with purpose, and prepare for the demands of competitive golf.
Available by consultation
Committed players
Motivated junior golfers seeking long-term development and competitive improvement, including players with college or professional aspirations.
We do not set minimum age, handicap or tournament requirements. The starting point is the player's own goals and where their game is right now.
Priorities shaped around the individual player
Development priorities are tailored to the individual player. Depending on the player, coaching attention is given to:
- Technical skills
- Movement and ball control, with changes matched to the player's stage of development.
- Short game and putting
- The scoring skills, practised with clear targets and measured against them.
- Course strategy and decision-making
- Shot selection, managing misses, and committing to a plan when it matters.
- Purposeful practice
- Work with a defined purpose, so time away from lessons carries into play.
- Tournament preparation
- Routines and preparation built around the events a player is working towards.
More than technique
The aim is a player who keeps improving — the kind of confidence that comes from knowing what to work on and seeing the work show up in play.
That means consistent routines around practice and competition, accountability for the work between sessions, and growing independence, so players learn to assess their own game and make their own decisions.
This is a development process, not a guarantee. Progress depends on the player, their commitment, and the time they put in.
Start with a conversation
Players and parents are welcome to discuss goals, current experience and coaching needs with Paula and Tano. Ask questions, get a feel for how we work, and we will talk through whether this program fits where the player is now.
Junior High Performance Development is available by consultation. Format and scheduling are discussed individually — TMPO does not operate its own golf facility, and lesson locations are confirmed directly with the coaches.
Juniors of all levels — including those new to the game — are also welcome in Private Lessons and Shared & Small-Group Lessons.
