Junior Golf
Year Round Performance Training
Building Life Champions
Over the years, I have had the opportunity train with and learn from the greatest coaches, teachers, and leaders in sport performance training as well as coaching for the sport of golf. From these experiences, I have built my own training academy to incorporate Golf Performance Training that includes a combination of teaching, coaching, competition, and training within a team atmosphere.
Golf Performance Training provides a structured training environment where athletes receive individualized instruction alongside other evolving golf students. Students compete, train and leverage each other’s performance, well beyond just their own.
The academy is designed to help the students identify their strengths and build on them while understanding and sharpening areas that need development. We accomplish this by reinforcing that a student’s strengths are his or her own unique talents, first and foremost. We train on three different levels. First – students train to learn. Second – students train to compete. Third – students train to win. This is the champions formula that maximizes Teaching, Coaching, and Training at the highest performance level.
While each training day is different, each session encompasses a different aspect of full swing, short game, distance wedges, putting training and on-course practice. During a training day, students have particular stations at which they begin, and goals which they must reach before they can move on to the next station. Within each performance segment, students rotate through different training drills, based on their individual strengths and areas for development. Students also spend time on the golf course as a compliment to the training and coaching regimen.
Since the inception of our training club in February 2004, our team members have won 900 individual titles in local, regional, and national tournaments. 100% of our Elite graduating seniors receive golf scholarships
Academy Overview
This training is designed to help students learn to play the game at a higher level. Our goal is to teach, train, and coach you the skills, knowledge, and confidence to make and/or succeed on your high school team.

Summer Golf Camps
Training To Learn
As an athlete, the only possible avenue to success is to rely on proven methods and solid training techniques. If your training is limited to vacations and summer camps and you want an experience that parallels what SHGP full time students’ experience, then SHGP should be your camp of choice. SHGP camps has combined the “Shawn Humphries Approach” with an academy training philosophy. Students work on developing sound swing mechanics, mental conditioning, training drills, and course simulated training that are all essential elements of the SHGP experience. SHGP builds and environment for students “training to learn.”
