Experience and coaching role
With the coaching team of Peter Thomsen and Andreas Kali from DJGA who are in charge of the Lyngby Golf College, we have from day one secured an enormous experience, insight and dedication in training with young talents. DJGA has delivered many talents to the Danish national teams, and several are embarking on a professional career. Around a talent environment, it becomes clear that the sporting set-up carries the heaviest weight. It is crucial to create the right sporty set-up and environment.
The experience from DJGA is the foundation that future students at Lyngby Golf College benefit from in everyday life and at annual training camps at home and abroad, where inspiration is continuously created via external experts.
The coaches at the college work at the highest level and expect themselves to be a support for the individual player at all times. This means that they are constantly working to further develop their own competencies in all areas. Thus, the coaches also act as mentors for the individual player. Players learn to relate to more than one coach, however, there will be a primary coach associated with each player.

We believe in
We believe in and have experienced that it is crucial for each individual player's development that you become aware of your own technique and development areas. The goal is to make the player his own best coach and enable the player to take responsibility for their own development. In our training and approach to the players, we work holistically with all parts of the game of golf, technically, physically, tactically and mentally. In addition, we work with social relationships. DJGA has always been based on four basic values:
- Responsibility
- Commitment
- Will
- Joy
At the same time, it is absolutely essential that our approach is based on seeing the players as whole people, which is why it is important to focus on acquiring competencies that go beyond the sport and will benefit them in their other endeavors. Basically, the philosophy and training environment of DJGA creates motivation and development. Training at College is holistic and process-oriented, and is primarily about technical, physical and mental training. The technical training uses the latest technological analysis tools, including TrackMan, 3D Biodynamics, SamPutLab and video systems. This helps to provide the most optimal and accurate analysis of the direction of development. In the physical training, programs are prepared based on physical screenings. The program is continuously adjusted and supervised by the physical trainer.
The mental training is based on a goal, evaluation and division into periods, which are decided in individual interviews throughout the year. We work individually with the player and focus on the player's challenges in this area. It is expected that the player is ready to work with himself and his personal development. We believe that purposeful work and training in a developing environment among like-minded people yields results.
