2021 marked the first season of implementation of the Operation 36 Program for David Banks Golf.
David Banks received a Top 50 Coach Award from Op 36 and Hidden Lake earned Top 50 Op 36 facility honors (over 1300 coaches and 700 courses worldwide).
Step 1 Playing the Game
Playing the game is necessary to learn the game! Operation 36 locations are led by Golf Professionals who will provide your junior with a 9 hole playing experience with the Op 36 Model. Parents will caddy for their junior as they begin their golf journey. Your junior's 9 hole scores will be logged on their profile by the coach to track their golf development over time.
Step 2 Learn Skills in Fun Classes
The game will be fun when the learning is fun. Your junior will make new friends and learn skills in fun engaging classes. The coaches have created and shared many fun and age-appropriate games. Juniors will have so much fun they may not realize that they are learning and developing skills! The digital planning tools help track progress and make the program very organized. David uses the Operation 36 Curriculum to make learning in classes a fun and engaging experience.
Step 3 Track and Train Progress
The Operation 36 Mobile App is your family's guide to assist with play and practice outside of classes. Not only should the junior classes feel like a game, their entire golf development should! Golf is a game, games are meant to be fun!
All your playing and practicing data is sent to your coach automatically to help the coach guide your child in their development. You and your junior may receive educational videos sent by your coach. You and your child can see all the goals and the development journey in one spot. There needs to be a connection between parents, the coach, and the golfer to assist in a motivating and encouraging way!
