Seamus Clinton has been a PGA professional for over 20 years. He has teaching experience at all levels, including spells teaching at Carton House, the Irish Open and the European Open. After years developing programs for children and young adults he has forged a reputation as a PGA trainer.
Therefore, he had to be the one to organise the Junior Golf Summer Camp at the Redcastle Hotel. Seamus applies instruction in a simple and entertaining way, tailoring lessons to each individual. His extensive experience and charisma make him the perfect mentor. Kids will not want to leave!
“When introducing golf to kids we emphasise the fun side of the game”, he says. The practice of golf is very important for the children’s education and growth; it generates healthy habits of life and develops values such as humility, sportsmanship and teamwork. This combined with discipline makes the game very appealing for both kids and parents. “Golf is a game for life”, Seamus concludes.
Seamus has been associated with the Redcastle Hotel Golf Club for over a year now: “The potential here is enormous; the hotel facilities and the golf course are just excellent” – he admits.
The Redcastle Hotel Golf Course is a 9-hole parkland golf course that contours around Lough Foyle. It is a treat for golfers.
Golf has always been popular but it is gaining fans every day. “On this island, we are very lucky to have always had World professional golfers, idols for kids to admire. Rory McIlroy is, of course, at the top of that list”, says Seamus about the man who has put Ireland in the map of golfing.
At the Redcastle Junior Golf Summer Camp we want to provide the opportunity for kids and young adults to develop their talent and have an enjoyable time. And, who knows, maybe one day they get to become great golfers like Rory or Jon Rahm, recent winner of the Dubai Duty Free Irish Open.
The Redcastle Junior Golf Summer Camp will take place at the Redcastle Hotel Golf Course from 22nd to 24th August 2017. If you want to enrol your child, please contact Seamus on 086 867 4201.
