The Gary Gilchrist Golf Academy (GGGA) is a year-round junior golf academy that attracts students from all over the world to train at the highest level and to achieve peak performance in the shortest amount of time.  Adopting a holistic approach to training GGGA focuses on every aspect of the athlete’s development: technical, mental and physical, while maintaining a high level of academic excellence and a nurturing social environment. 

Located just 35 minutes outside Orlando at the Mission Inn Resort & Club, the academy has the use of extensive range and short game facilities and two 18-hole championship golf courses.

Golf Program:  Under Gary Gilchrist’s leadership, his team of Certified Professionals rigorously implements the system of training that Gary has developed through his many years of experience training juniors. Following a periodized schedule, students will train in a technical, pre-competition or active rest cycle to maximize development and improve results. 

Physical Fitness: At GGGA, all athletes participate in the fitness program. The modern game of golf demands strong, flexible athletes; so our fitness program involves golf-specific strength, flexibility, and stability exercises, as well as cardiovascular training to help develop the key fitness elements necessary to achieve a high level of performance.  Fitness training also helps prevent injury, cope with a highly demanding schedule and perhaps most importantly leads to a healthier lifestyle.

Mental Training: A critical component to student development, the mental conditioning program enables a student athlete to better understand the mental factors that effect their performance and provide skills and tools to enhance it.  Mental conditioning teaches important skills such as goal setting; building a strong self image; relaxation; visualization; self-talk; routine; quality practice and self awareness.

Academics: A high standard of academic excellence is a priority at GGGA. We have partnered with Phoenix School to provide a robust academic curriculum that keeps the students challenged and provides a preparatory education with which they can pursue their goals in golf.

Full Time Junior Program

The Full Time Junior Golf Program is designed to prepare our students for the rigors of collegiate and professional golf. It is an all-day program that integrates academics and golf training. During the week, students attend school in the mornings, and spend their afternoons focusing on improving their golf game and fitness. Depending on the student’s schedule and progress, weekends can be spent competing in a particular tournament, putting in some extra practice, resting or enjoying one of the many attractions that Orlando offers. 

Upon arrival, students are evaluated to determine their strengths and weaknesses utilizing 3-D and 2-D swing analysis technology. Major emphasis is placed on adapting the program to each student’s individual needs. The goal of the program is to develop well-trained, confident, athletic competitors who excel in the competitive arena.

The Post Graduate Program follows the same system of training as the Full Time Junior program. Post graduate students train in cycles with the goal reaching peak performance during competition.

Following the same philosophy as our full-time programs, they encompass all areas of the game and are specifically tailored to each student’s needs. During their visit, students gain a better understanding of where their strengths are and of how to continue improving on their weaker areas – even after they have gone back home.

After a thorough evaluation of the student’s long game, short game, course management, mental skills and fitness level, our certified staff will design a personalized program featuring proven drills and exercises that will guarantee student improvement. Students will be able to use all training facilities and test their game on any of Mission Inn’s 2 championship golf courses. Throughout the summer camp, student progress will be closely monitored.

Students can attend the summer camp for single or multiple weeks at a time.
