The Roland Stafford Golf School and the Windham Country Club Team Up

The Roland Stafford Golf School and the Windham Country Club join to create one of the finest golf teaching centers in the country.

Windham, NY (PRWEB) April 26, 2006 -- The Windham Country Club is the newest site of the Roland Stafford Golf School. This prestigious golf school, the first in New York State and one of the finest in the country, coupled with the superb golfing facilities of the Country Club make an unprecedented opportunity for not only golfers within the region but from all over the world. The Roland Stafford Golf School first opened its doors in 1981 and since that time it has been the foremost name in golf education and instruction in the New York Metropolitan Area, benefiting over 50,000 students in the game of golf.

“We are excited to be embarking on this new venture” said Russell Parry, President of the Windham Country Club. “The great success of the school has been attributed to its quality of golf instruction and leadership. The Country Club is maintained and operated with the same set of high standards. We are proud of the fact that the golf course has been rated by Golf Digest with 3½ Stars and a “must play.” Our philosophy is in tune with that of the golf school, friendly and personal attention.”

The Roland Stafford Golf School offers comprehensive instruction that is adjusted to serve beginners right through to low-handicappers, in a 2, 3 or 4 day golf school package. All areas of the game are covered to include the short game, filming of every ones swing and on course instruction. The hallmark of the Roland Stafford Golf Schools has long been their unique but simple teaching method of golf instruction created by the school’s namesake, Roland Stafford. According to Stafford, there are many elements common to both sports and music and chief among them are tempo and rhythm. A rhythmic swing and a thorough understanding of the overall shape of the swing is the foundation of this teaching method. In addition to having been a PGA Touring Professional, Stafford had earned his Masters Degree in Music Education.

Accommodations arranged for the golf school guests include the best Windham has to offer: a premier mountain resort, the Winwood Inn; an Alpine style chalet, Hotel Vienna; and the B&B Albergo Allegria with an AAA 4 Diamond Award. In addition to these accommodations, the selection of village restaurants meets all ones dining pleasures, offering a warm welcome and a tasty discount.

“This new affiliation with the Windham Country Club is in perfect accord with what we like to offer our students.” notes Susan Stafford, golf school owner. “My first concern is always the quality of instruction. Then I look for an upscale location with a minimum of 18 holes of golf and plenty of practice areas, all well maintained. A friendly atmosphere, great food and accommodations are always a priority after a tiring day of practicing and playing golf. I believe the Windham Country Club, the selected inns and restaurants, and the Roland Stafford Golf School are a perfect blend of first rate amenities and quality golf instruction. Everything is conveniently located to the golf course. I look forward to serving the public at this new location for many years to come.”
