Operated and overseen by Mark Durland - awarded 2008 Teacher of the Year by the South Florida PGA - the Naples Grande Golf School offers a huge array of tuition to develop both individual aspects and overall play. Options include everything from an hour's swing clinic on the driving range, to seasonal six month golf schools, covering every facet of the game. The Golf School features an all-grass, double sided teeing zone and bunkered greens emphasising putting, chipping and sand shots. Spend time perfecting and tweaking both long and short game either with a tutor, or individually. Having spent 5 years here as assistant pro before launching the Naples Grande Golf School, Mark knows almost every blade of grass on the course.
