Golf is a challenging and lifelong sport, so young athletes need proper focus on the fundamentals of form, swinging, putting, and body positioning. To assist in this training, Skyhawks has adopted the SNAG (Starting New At Golf) system to its curriculum. SNAG is
specifically designed for the entry-level player; SNAG simplifies instruction so that young players can make an easy and effective transition onto the golf course.
