Camp Staff

Our camp provides a collegiate training experience like none other — bolstered by the experience and expertise of PGA and LPGA certified golf professionals, college coaches, a sports psychologist and an athletic trainer. Not only do campers get access to resources and facilities that a college player at Texas would, but they also get to know college players during the week. Rounding out the staff each year are student-athletes that represent the University of Texas. Getting to know college athletes on a personal level is typically one of the highlights of a camper's experience.

The 2019 Camp staff will not be announced until later in the spring but in the past, it has featured collegiate coaches from: Baylor, TCU, Houston, University of Alabama-Birmingham, Southern Miss, St. Edward's and Concordia to name a few.
