Why Sandown works so well for coaching

Range, short game and course options in one place.

Sandown gives us enough variety to coach the whole game rather than keeping every lesson on one practice bay.

Sandown FAQs

Before your first lesson.

Do I need my own golf clubs?

No. If you do not have suitable clubs, get in touch before the lesson and we can advise on what is available. Juniors do not need to buy equipment just to try the game.

Are lessons suitable for complete beginners?

Yes. Matt coaches complete beginners as well as experienced golfers. You do not need any previous golf experience before booking.

Where is Sandown Park Golf Centre?

Sandown Park Golf Centre is on More Lane in Esher, Surrey, KT10 8AN. Your booking confirmation will give you the final meeting details for your lesson.

What is the difference between private junior lessons and MEGA Juniors?

Private lessons are one-to-one with Matt. MEGA Juniors is the weekly group programme, split into ages 4–11 and 11+. Many juniors benefit from using both over time.

Golf lessons in Esher

Why Sandown works so well as a coaching base.

Sandown Park Golf Centre gives lessons in Esher a useful mix of practice environments rather than limiting every session to one range mat. The centre has a covered driving range with Toptracer on selected bays, a natural grass tee area, a practice bunker and dedicated short-game options, alongside three nine-hole courses.

That variety is particularly helpful for beginners and juniors because coaching can progress from learning contact on the range to putting, chipping and eventually playing holes. For improving adults, it also means a lesson can focus on the part of the game that is actually costing shots rather than defaulting to full-swing work every time.

Sandown is convenient for golfers coming from Esher, Claygate, Hinchley Wood, Thames Ditton, Chessington, Surbiton, Cobham and the surrounding Surrey area.
