Start practicing now so you're ready when golf season swings into gear this fall when temperatures cool off. Whether you've tried the sport a few times or have never held a club, this five-week beginner program at the PGA of America Coaching Center will have you ready to take on 18 holes.

Over the course of five weeks, PGA of America Golf Professionals will teach students the skills necessary to swing, chip and putt and play the game. Participants will also learn the in's and out's of golf course etiquette. Players do need to provide their own equipment and wear proper golf attire.

The next five-week session begins on Wednesday, October 15.
