Whether you want relaxed evening sessions, technique-focused clinics, on-course learning, or indoor training during the winter, we offer a program that fits your goals.
Our certified coaches create a welcoming, encouraging environment where women can learn golf at their own pace without pressure. Come meet new friends, improve your swing, and enjoy the game in a fun, supportive setting.
Set in the relaxed atmosphere of The Backyard and the beautiful Clayton Hills Par 3, these evenings and mornings offer the perfect mix of instruction, entertainment, and community.
Online Registration. Reach out to matt@thebackyard.golf or sahil@thebackyard.golf with questions.
We do Theme each night to be sure you know what to bring or not bring. This may also affect the size of the class. Putting can be the biggest and full swing is the smallest size.

Alternatively, Matt Palsenbarg works indoors as well at Haus of Golf in Langley. Haus of Golf has 6 Trackman Simulator Bays, which is great 365 days a year. Private lessons are always available as Matt is and has been for over 20 years a full-time, year-round golf coach.

INDOOR SERIES AT HAUS OF golf
Matt is excited to launch his first Indoor Series at the Haus of Golf. This program will be max 4 students per group and conducted with the same fun and energy as the Backyard. We know new golfers are more seasonal, but getting work done in the off-season sets us up for Spring and getting back outside. I will still do private lessons at the Backyard and maybe try some new group ideas when the weather permits.
- Book a Semi Private Session and enjoy sharing the space with your friend. This option is great for ladies that dont want full on private lessons for 1 Hour straight on their own. Splitting the cost always helps as each player gets there 30 mins of coaching.
