The Belfry Training Camp
Alistar Davies returned to the Desert Springs Resort for the second consecutive year with a squad of 10 pupils for a warm weather pre-season training camp between 26th - 29th March 2012.
Desert Springs Golf Operations Manager, José Ignacio Olea met with Alistair Davies to receive his feed back on how the training camp had gone.
Alistair remarked:
"Once again, as last year, the whole Desert Springs experience was very good, the staff throughout are all very helpful; everyone is always willing to assist us and make our stay one of convenience.
I selected to return once again to Desert Springs mainly due to the level of service we are provided with and the quality of the practice facilities at the Golf Academy and the course itself which provide a great place for a training camp.
Furthermore, the resort is not concentrated on volume traffic but rather quality, and this provides the perfect training environment for us to benefit from."
The group were accommodated in luxury colonial apartments at Desert Springs.

There were other resorts under consideration such as La Manga, however Nigel Edwards ( Director of Player Development & Coaching of the Golf Union of Wales), and Kevin Hale ( Senior Academy Instructor of any other. St. Andrews University), both previous visitors to Desert Springs with training squads of their own highly recommended your resort and facilities over.
