The Stick to Golf Pitching Station consists of one Teeny Target, one Teeny Tee Mat, one pitching club with special built-in grip assist (either right or left handed club), and 3 Stick-to balls. The players will use their own club or the special pitching club that can be purchased with the unit. They’ll pitch the special stick-to balls from a Teeny Tee Mat to the stand-up Teeny Target with a green, fairway, hazards and out-of-bounds. By placing the Teeny Tee Mat at varying distances from the Teeny Target, even the most accomplished golfer is challenged.
NOTE: The Pitching Station can be purchased with or without the special pitching club.
Playing Instructions:The Teeny Target and Teeny Tee Mat can be set up at home, indoors or outdoors, in a classroom, a hallway, or gymnasium. Increase the difficulty factor by moving the Teeny Tee Mat farther away from the Teeny Target. Even the most accomplished golfer is challenged. Play individual or group games or practice your short game.
HOW THE PITCHING STATION WORKS IN SCHOOLS:
1. Equipment for each Pitching Station:2. Allow a minimum of 36 square feet (6’ by ‘6) for each station.
3. Place the tee mat at a designated tee distance (red, gold, white, or blue).
4. Assign students to each Pitching Station
Groups of two or three students should be assigned to each Pitching Station. The responsibilities listed below can be combined based on how many students are assigned to each station. For a twosome, the students can collaborate to determine the score after each stroke. The members of each group rotate through the positions.
