A WEEK IN UGPM
“A week at the UGPM is very varied, Monday, Tuesday and Thursday we spend the morning at the golf academy where we take golf lessons and go to the gym. In the afternoons we have Spanish classes at the university.
On Wednesdays and Fridays we usually play at Parador Golf but also get to know different golf courses in the surroundings of Malaga. On the weekend we play tournaments. So the week promises a lot of golf but also a lot of fun.”
Maya-Sophie Lindner
"UGPM allows you to combine your studies with an extensive golf program.
In the morning we have our studies and in the afternoon we train. We start with a technical class and end the day with a gym. The weekend is always covered with a championship in different courses in the area.
It is a pleasure to be in this team, where commitment, motivation and good vibes prevail."
