• PGA seminar: The Aloha Section PGA is offering "How to Get the Most from Your Students" seminars on O'ahu and the Big Island this month. Paul Callaway, creator of the Body Balance for Performance golf health, fitness and performance training program, will direct.
His interactive seminars are specifically designed for PGA/LPGA teaching professionals to learn about the physical characteristics necessary to play safe and consistent golf. The goal is to help golf pros "gain a full understanding of the physical requirements each student must have in order to maximally benefit from their instruction and remain injury free."
The Big Island seminar is Oct. 16, from 3 to 5 p.m. at Hapuna Golf Course. Cost is $10 for PGA members and apprentices, or $20 for non-members. Deadline to register is Oct. 12.
