Mission Statement

“In my quest to make every golfer perform to the best of their ability I realized a long time ago that I had to teach the entire game to the entire person,” says Tom Rosati. Our goal at the Tom Rosati Golf Academy is to teach the fundamentals of the game to players of all levels and develop each student’s ability beyond their expectations while at the same time instilling a love and appreciation for the game that extends well beyond this unique experience. At the Academy we accomplish this goal by merging world-class instruction programs with a top-notch practice facility and state-of-the-art technology.
