Wattle Downs Golf Course is well positioned for learning the game of golf as there are not too many hazards and the ground is flat.

The resident coach is Stephen Partridge. A former North Island Champion who has been coaching since the mid 90s. More info about his services can be found here.

There is a dedicated practice area, also knows as “the 10th hole”. This par 3 is no longer part of the course and can be used for lessons and practice. The course also has two newly installed driving nets where you can practice swinging without having to chase your ball. There is also a putting practice green right outside the the Club House.
