Golf lessons, coaches and lesson packages

Golf O'Clock books the bay and the coach together, and sells lesson packs that redeem themselves. Lessons are high-value bookings that bring players back every week, so they're worth setting up properly.

In short: Sell golf lesson packages with Golf O'Clock: customers book lessons with your coaches, choose their coach and buy lesson packs, and coaches see their schedule.

Coaches with their own schedule

Add your coaches with their own working hours and time off. Lessons are only offered when both a lesson bay and the coach are free. Coaches see their own schedule and lesson details on their own page.

Customers choose their coach

Let customers pick their coach when they book, or let the system assign one.

Lesson packages

Sell a pack of lessons, such as five 50-minute lessons, from your online store, and the time lands on the customer's account. It only works on lesson bookings, and is used up as they book.

Why venues use it

Lessons bring players back week after week, and players who improve play more. Booking the coach and the bay together stops double-bookings, and lesson packs bring the money in up front while giving students a reason to keep coming. Staff can set up a recurring weekly booking to hold a regular student's slot for the season.

The demand is there. Across 200+ venues on Golf O'Clock, the average party on a customer's third booking is under 1.8 people: by then they're coming to practice, not for a night out.

Common questions

Do coaches need a staff account?
No. A coach just needs a customer account linked to their coach profile. Give them a staff role only if they also work the desk.
Can lessons cost more than bay rental?
Yes. Set a lesson rate in your pricing.
Can I run group clinics?
Yes. Create a clinic booking option with set start times and a group size.
