Background and Aim: Golf gradually attracted the attention of commercial groups, sports organizations, and people and youth. In China golf was considered to be prohibitively expensive. This research aimed to construct a training program by applying various teaching techniques such as target goal setting, imagery, flipped classroom, game, parents’ engagement, and assignment to enhance the basic golf skills of novice golf students.
Materials and Methods: This research was a quasi-experiment research. The subjects were 20 students in grade 7th of junior high schools, they were volunteers and accepted the options requirement of, paying fees, and parents’ cooperation, and the subject had a full-time time to participate in 8 8-week program. The comprehensive golf program was constructed and then validated by 3 experts. The IOC was at 0.97 (0.66-1.00) and the efficiency by trying out with 30 students was E1/E2 = 74.20/77.35. The training program duration was 8 weeks, 2 sessions a week and 1.30 hours a session. The experiment was a one-group pretest, mid-test, and post-test design. The researcher monitored goal-setting achievement during the experimental operation. The basic golf skills test consisted of a chip test, an approach test, and a tee-off test. The data was analyzed with repeated measure ANOVA and post hoc analysis with LSD.
Result: (1) Constructed comprehensive training program met validated criteria on IOC=0.097(0.66-1.00), and efficiency (E1/E2) = 74.20/77.35. (2) The progression of golf skills in chipping between the pre-test and mid-rest was not significantly different at 0.05 but at the post-test was significantly different at .05. The skills on approaching and tee-off had better progression from pre-test through mid-test and post-test at significant differences at .05.
Conclusion: The constructed comprehensive training program for novice golf students had efficiency and effectiveness.
