Get to know Sarah
My dad introduced me to golf when I was 8 years old, and it is the best thing he ever did for me! Since then, I have had a passion and desire to succeed in the game. I went on to have an amazing golf career in high school and college, and still enjoy playing today. I have been lucky to work with some of the best coaches over time and would love to share the knowledge I have gained over the 20+ years that I have been playing.
How I can help you improve
I can help golfers break down their swings to the fundamentals and look at golf from a different perspective. Each golfer has areas in their game where they can cut strokes during competition. I want to identify those weaknesses and improve upon them. Without changing the golfers entire game, I will make minor adjustments to improve on the golfers natural ability.
A typical training session
First, I like to get to know the golfer. So I may ask you some questions to learn more about you and your golf ability, and what motivates you. Next, I am aware that golf can be overwhelming and intimidating at times! So instead of overwhelming you with multiple suggestions and adjustments at once, we will focus on 1 or 2 skills each session, and master that skill. Then at the next session we will build upon that.
Career & accomplishments
- 2013 & 2014 Camp Counselor at Gongaware Golf Academy in Franklin, IN.
I worked with a team of 6 camp counselors that instructed groups of golfers between the ages of 8-18.
- 2022 Interim Head Coach for the Covenant Christian High School boys team.
Best coach I ever had
The late Roger Lundy. He followed my golf career from a young age through high school. When it came time to choose which college I wanted to play for, I had no doubt that I wanted to play for Roger at Franklin College in Franklin, Indiana. He had a way of making golf simple, but above all, he made it fun. Before every tournament, the last thing he would say to my teammates and I was, "Do your best everyday, and love each other."
What athletes & parents should know
I believe that golf is unique. It is one of the hardest sports in the world. I am very grateful that I started playing at a young age, because I believe it is much harder to learn in adulthood.
That being said, golf should be FUN! I enjoy working with kids of all ages, and ultimately I would like to grow the game of golf, especially for young girls.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former college and pro athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process + background check, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
