My work experience took place with the kind permision of my own golf course at Swarland Hall in Northumberland, held during the last two weeks of the school term before the summer break.
My work was to assist the green keepers from 07.00hrs to 15.30hrs Monday to Friday, I learned to work with the all the greenkeepers and the various equipment they used to complete all the daily tasks.
At first I found it hard work, especially having to get up at 05.30hrs to drive 20 miles to start for 07.00hrs. I learned to cut fairways, cut tee boxes, change the posisions of the pins,and clean up bunkers, all before the course was due to open, but the best part was to find lost golf balls, I found over 100 in total, all good quality.

May I take this opportunity to thank the club for having me, and in particular the green keepers.







For my work experience I worked at Bedlingtonshire Golf Club to work in the pro shop with my coach Marcus Webb.
I found it enjoyable and very interesting I found out what a professionals job consists of such as fixing golf clubs, collecting orders, dealing with customers, answering the phone, writing out cards and a bit more. I also worked in the bar when there was an big competition and helped with the meals.
I really enjoyed my work experience at Bedlington and I was also able to play golf on the course and practice on the practice area, putting green and chipping green. Overall my work experience has encouraged me even more to do something in golf as a career.
