The parallels between golf and life are plentiful. At Westtown, we strive to make our athletes better golfers and, more importantly, better people by applying golf to life lessons. A Westtown golfer will learn to take responsibility, be accountable for their actions, and develop patience and character to learn from adversity. They'll realize keeping an even keel is a good guiding principle and learn that having a positive mental attitude about everything we do in life is a game changer and can instantly impact our results. We'll act with honesty and integrity and be humble, respectful, and gracious. Most of all, we will learn that great results often follow when good habits collide with a relaxed focus.

How We Train
Westtown’s golf program instruction is based on the PGA teaching methodology and focuses on the three fundamentals of golf: posture, grip, and alignment. Our goal is to create the ability for a consistent ball-striking square to target while recognizing the importance of efficient pitching, chipping, and putting as the quickest path to lower scores. Our daily schedule of practicing with a purpose establishes good habits and sound muscle memory.

Player-Focused Philosophy
Westtown Golf prides itself on acting professionally and having proper etiquette on and off the course. We recognize that our players represent themselves and the entire Westtown community and act accordingly. We stress teamwork, responsibility, patience, and character. We are a confident team, but confidence is an earned commodity achieved only by being tenacious, embracing practice, and playing with enthusiasm. As a result, we are optimistic and positive about golf and life.
