About Bsc (hons) Golf Coaching + Performance (top-up) in University Centre Myerscough

The course is delivered at University Centre Myerscough and awarded by the University of Central Lancashire. The course offers a fast-track route to achieving an Honours Degree, for students holding a golf-related Foundation Degree or Higher National Diploma.
