Learn to play golf

Want to get your golf handicap? All you have to do is register for Costa Golf's incredibly successful 'Learn to Play Golf' school. You receive three hours of golf tuition a day. The exam is administered on day six.

Are you already familiar with golf and finally ready to get your handicap? Never before held a golf club? Costa Golf's 'Learn to play Golf' school is suitable for everyone: for beginners and players with some prior golf experience.

Benefits of getting your golf handicap
In most countries, you will require a golf handicap to be permitted on the golf course. This is only logical. Since you will not be the only player on the course, it is paramount to be able to play at a brisk pace. Not to mention the safety aspects. That's why it's important to have mastered the basic techniques and know the rules and etiquette.
