About the coach
I am a PGA Professional and Level 3 Certified Coach, currently coaching full time at Naas Golf Club. My background combines high level competitive golf with structured player development, from beginners through to elite juniors and competitive amateurs.
My playing career includes three victories on the PGA Ireland circuit, winning the Southern Branch Order of Merit in the 2023 2024 season, and extensive experience competing in professional and elite amateur events. Team golf has played a major role in my development, and that perspective strongly influences how I coach and build players over time.
Coaching is now my primary focus. I lead junior development programmes, including a High Development Panel, and have coached teams to back to back All Ireland Junior Foursomes titles. I also work closely with adult golfers looking to improve ball striking, consistency, scoring, and long term performance rather than quick fixes.
My coaching approach is based on clear standards, sound fundamentals, and accountability. I use video analysis, structured feedback, and simple training priorities to help players understand what matters most, why it matters, and how to practice effectively. While every player is different, the principles of impact, ball flight, and skill development remain consistent.
Whether you are aiming to lower scores, develop as a junior golfer, or compete at a higher level, my goal is to provide clarity, structure, and a clear pathway for improvement.

My backswing improved a lot after the lesson! Ryan helped me with my technique, and now I feel much smoother and more controlled in my swing. It's amazing how a few adjustments can make such a big difference in my game. Can't wait to see how it continues to progress!
