Ramside Hall has appointed PGA professional Phil Redpath to its academy team.
Phil, from Newcastle, joins Ramside after six years working overseas at prestigious golf venues in Dubai and Qatar.
A class AA PGA professional, Phil worked at the Emirates Golf Club in Dubai, and The Pete Cowen and Mike Walker Golf Academy at Doha Golf Club in Qatar.
He is now looking to further his career at Ramside Hall.
“I’m thrilled to be joining Ramside Golf Club and Academy to continue my development as a top-class golf instructor and coach. I’m looking forward to being based at an outstanding range with quality short game facilities, two putting greens and 36 holes of championship golf,” said Phil.
His role will see him work with private clients, deliver group coaching for juniors and women, and assume a lead coach role with Durham Sixth Form Centre Golf Academy, whose students train at Ramside.
Phil’s career began at City of Newcastle Golf Club as a trainee PGA professional. He graduated with the PGA’s foundation degree in Professional Golf from Birmingham University in 2013, and used it as a springboard to land a role at The Emirates Club.
“I’ve been lucky enough to work at two European Tour venues in the Middle East and to learn the philosophies of Europe’s best golf coach in Pete Cowen. I’m excited to bring my knowledge and skills to Ramside to benefit golfers in the North East that are looking to improve their game and achieve their potential,” added Phil.
