Anna Smith, Advanced PGA

Anna Smith began her playing career in Kent, representing the County on many occasions as a junior.

She spent four years at an American university on a golf scholarship, where she captained her team to become Division II National Champions. She was also awarded NCAA Woman of the Year for her achievements in golf, community and academics.

After graduating from university, Anna returned to the UK and qualified for the Ladies European Tour, where she spent the next seven years competing around Europe and the rest of the World. Anna had many top 10 finishes during her time on the Tour.

Anna found her passion for teaching after she finished playing and now brings her wealth of experience to help her students.

Anna teaches all levels of golfer from beginner to elite, including men, women and juniors, drawing from her 28 years experience as a Professional Golfer. Anna’s teaching philosophy is to help her students become better golfers by looking at all aspects of the game and analysing what each individual needs.

Jemma Aldridge, Accredited PGA Professional

I started my career in Kent and played many times for the junior and women's county teams. When I was 16 I trained with the South East England Squad until I was 18. I carried on playing for the next 7 years on the PGA circuit all over England until I had my daughter and then focused mainly on teaching. I started playing again last year and look to getting back into playing more competitions again myself over the next year.

At 18 I did my PGA Coaching degree and was qualified by the time I was 21 and have been teaching for the past 12 years at Chelsfield Lakes Golf Centre. I teach women, men, juniors and seniors of all abilities. I previously taught Kent Junior Girls and have many women coming to group and individual sessions each week. I love teaching as you never know who your next student is going to be. I teach the individual in front of me as everyone is different and understands different techniques in different ways.
