I have played golf since the age of 8 and have turned a full time hobby into a full time career. Under the watchful eye of Alasdair Good and Bernard Hunt (former Ryder Cup Captain and player) I completed my examinations in 1998 and was awarded The Titleist Scholarship for outstanding achievement. Along the way I have earned a Diploma in Sports Psychology as well as passing the examination to become a Rules Referee. For 5 years I worked at Foxhills Golf & Country Club one of the most prestigious clubs in the London area.

Prior to working in Holland I trained under Scott Cranfield, a successful European Tour coach, helped set up a coaching facility in Jordan and was also Head Professional at Marvao Golf Club in Portugal. For the last 6 years I have taught at Golfbaan Spaarnwoude. I believe in trying to improve my knowledge all of the time which is why I regularly attend development programmes provided by the PGA of Great Britain (the most recognised association in world golf) and work with other respected teachers to help improve my own teaching and playing techniques.

Through self experience, study and working alongside quality coaches I have developed my own method of teaching. This method is now called the Setford Swing System.

My method has gained an average GVB pass rate of 90%.
