Getting Started with Students

Create and import students with the Students feature, keep coaching contacts separate from personal ones and gain access to interactive features for students - all in the PGA Coach app.

Before beginning the sections below, you should be logged in. If you are not yet logged in, you can do so by going to my.pga.com/pga-coach.

Start by clicking on Students in the side navigation. You'll then want to make sure the Students tab is selected to be able to see your current list of students.

Click on the button Create Student. You'll be presented with a form that allows you to create an adult (18+ years old) or a junior student. When you have finished completing the form, click on the button Create Student. You should see your new student appear in the Student view.

PGA Coach uses a streamlined, personalized approach for importing student data. To import your student roster into PGA Coach, simply download and complete the student import template (Excel / Google).

Prefer to use your own spreadsheet? Simply align your column headers with our requirements below and save as a .csv file. All fields are required unless indicated otherwise. For Juniors, you will need to provide the contact information (i.e., name, email, phone) of the student's parent or guardian.

• Adult (18+ years old) or Junior

• First Name

• Last Name

• Date of Birth (YYYY-MM-DD - optional)

• Contact Email

• Contact Phone (optional)

• Contact First Name (omit for Adults)

• Contact Last Name (omit for Adults)

Coaches can update student details, such as name, email and phone, if the student does NOT have a MyPGA account. If a student does have a MyPGA account, editing is currently disabled as the student can edit their information in the MyPGA app (not the MyPGA website).

Within the student detail page, click the edit button in the top right. Currently, you can edit First Name, Last Name, Email and Phone Number. Click Save to make the updates.

From the home screen, tap Contacts in the bottom menu. Then select a student to edit and tap their Profile & Details. In the top right, tap the pencil icon to edit. Tap Save to make the updates.

Once you have your students created, you can use other features to interact with them. We recommend trying Messaging, Bookings, and Reviews to start.
