Golf Simulator

Sport Central is fitted with two state-of-the-art Sports Coach Golf Simulator Systems, open to golfers of all ages and abilities. The simulators integrate high speed camera technology similar to that of ‘Hawk Eye’ to monitor the direction, vertical launch angle, speed and spin of the golf ball.

Providing instant feedback about the launch force, direction, lift and spin, the simulator replays your swing and allows you to make adjustments to ensure instant progress and development. The result is an amazingly accurate ball flight and an indoor sport experience, second to none.

You can select a golf course from more than 100 well known Championship courses which include St. Andrews, the Belfry PGA National, Celtic Manor and Pebble Beach.
