Traditional golf lessons have always been valuable, giving Players the
chance to learn directly from an experienced Coach. However, for many Players,
there are barriers that make lessons difficult to access. Lessons often require
booking in advance, travelling to a course or range, and paying for longer
sessions that may not fit into a busy schedule. Costs can also add up quickly,
putting regular coaching out of reach for many Players.
Confidence can also be a challenge. Beginners in particular may feel
intimidated standing in front of a Coach, worried about making mistakes or not
knowing the basics. Even for experienced Players, lessons can sometimes feel
overwhelming when too much information is shared at once.
Barriers also exist for Coaches. Cancellations from students due to weather,
illness, or scheduling conflicts can affect earnings (see
Refund & Cancellation Policy). Bad weather can
close ranges or courses, limiting opportunities to coach, while some Players
simply prefer the comfort of staying indoors. These factors can create
uncertainty for Coaches who rely on in-person sessions for income.
These barriers mean that many people who want to improve never take lessons
as often as they would like, and Coaches sometimes struggle with inconsistent
schedules. Elevate Golf does not aim to replace traditional lessons - they
remain an important part of the game. Instead, the platform offers an
alternative that removes many of these barriers - quick, affordable
Personalised Tips that can be accessed anytime,
anywhere (see
Get a Tip). This makes
progress possible for more Players, while also giving Coaches a fairer, more
reliable way to share their expertise (see

Expects).
