Mission Hills Golf Club announced that the Mission Hills Golf Academy by Cindy Reid has moved into a new state-of-the-art facility and partnered with TaylorMade-adidas.
The Academy's newly constructed 32,000 square foot home features eight hitting bays equipped with the innovative V1 Swing Analysis Technology, fitness room, pro shop, conference room and grill. The structure is adjacent to a multi-tiered grass practice range with room for dozens of students. Several large practice putting and chipping greens are also nearby.
TaylorMade-adidas will be the exclusive equipment provider to the Academy -- it will offer only the second TaylorMade SelectFit system in Asia and begin custom fittings for students on April 26. TaylorMade-adidas will also provide uniforms for all Academy staff and signage throughout the practice facility.
"I am incredibly proud of the rapid growth my academy has enjoyed since opening last summer," says Reid, formerly the Director of Instruction at TPC Sawgrass. "The completion of our new home and partnership with TaylorMade-adidas will take us to the next level."
Events for the April 26 Grand Opening include an opening ceremony and press conference, video golf lessons, academy tours, a book signing, skills challenge and an awards presentation.
"We are honored to have Cindy Reid here at Mission Hills," says Dr. David Chu, Chairman, Mission Hills Group. "By instilling sound fundamentals in beginners and improving the skills of those who are more advanced, Cindy's academy is influencing an entire generation of Chinese golfers. These golfers are of paramount importance if the game is to continue to flourish in China."
The Cindy Reid Signature Golf School features an Elite Golf School and a Women's Elite Golf School in two and three day packages. The Elite Golf School is an intense program that caters to serious golfers who seek to improve their tournament play, while the Women's Elite Golf School focuses on basic fundamentals for female players. The Cindy Reid Signature Golf School also offers a Three Day Elite Short Game School geared toward experienced players. Each of these schools is highlighted by personal instruction from Reid.
Reid has worked with several PGA TOUR stars over her twenty-five year career, including Fred Funk, Davis Love III, Rocco Mediate, and Vijay Singh, as well as LPGA standouts Sophie Gustafson and Deb Richard. She is widely considered one of golf's premier teachers and is known for her ability to communicate and inspire her students. Reid is a Golf For Women magazine Top 50 instructor, a regular contributor to The Golf Channel's "Academy Live," and a contributing instructor writer to Golf For Women and PGA TOUR Partners Magazine.
