Private & Semi-Private Coaching
Private and Semi-Private Coaching Packages are designed to assess your game, plan a pathway to success and teach you the skills to get there. Each package begins with an on-course and TPI assessment to determine your goals, areas of your game that need improvement and any limitations that may exist. From there, a coaching and practice plan will be built around your individual goals. This plan will focus on improving not only your technical game, but the most commonly over looked areas of mental, strategic, emotional and physical.

In 2019, Kate was awarded the PGA of BC Apprentice Professional of the Year.
Since 2016, Kate has been a coach for the British Columbia Golf Association, conducting regional and provincial training camps and leading many of their athletes and teams to success. She is dedicated to her continued professional development and holds numerous coaching credentials including PGA of Canada CNC and CDC as well as Titleist Performance Institute Level 2 Golf and Level 2 Junior.

Kate volunteers her time with numerous organizations and committees.
