Golf Schools

1, 2 and 3 Day Golf Schools have been developed to help you get your game ready for the upcoming season and offers you the opportunity to train on one of the most scenic courses on Vancouver Island. The GBC Golf Academy has developed under Edd’s watchful eye to be one of British Columbia’s premier schools for personalized instruction. With Edd’s thorough approach we know you’ll not only enjoy yourself during your school, but will also leave feeling that all of your instruction expectations have been met.

The Academy

The GBC Golf Academy has developed into one of the best golf school destinations in Canada. Since its conception in 2002 the Academy has expanded and been nominated for provincial recognition. The instructional programs in our school cover all aspects of the game to ensure you get the instruction you need to improve your game. Arbutus Ridge Golf and Country Club has recently renovated the full length driving range and added a brand new 100 yard short game facility. These facilities are set between stunning scenic views and beautiful natural surroundings giving players unique opportunities to spot local wildlife.

Edd’s School Philosophy

Our Golf Schools give instructors the opportunity to work with each individual student and focus on all aspects of the game. Edd’s 4:1 student to teacher ratio permits him to set aside time to analyze each student’s game and gives him the opportunity to offer concrete feedback so you know what you need to work on to improve your game. In this environment, students learn at their own pace and will come away from the school with proven coaching pointers that will help them focus on improving the weakest part of their game so that they can see improved results on the course.

Custom Programs to Fit Your Needs

Customizing a program specifically to your group is what Edd does best. Edd will work with you to focus on your interests and to accommodate your schedule, ensuring you get the most out of our schools.
