Assistant Professional
NICKI BALL

After a distinguished golf playing career and 20+ year teaching career in the classroom, the time is right to combine both.

I am hugely excited to be beginning my PGA qualification and learning from some top golf coaches here at Etchinghill.

My amateur golf career highlights involved multiple victories including Kent Championships , English Intermediate and Wentworth Scratch culminating in representing England in the home nations and ultimately Great Britain and Ireland in the Curtis Cup in 2004 .
More recently I have returned to the Kent fold being lucky enough to Player/Manager the Ladies 1st team to the County Finals this year.

Golf is a passion of mine and I feel very lucky to now be able to share my knowledge and inspire more people into the game and help more people enjoy growing their own game.

Golf is a simple game made complicated and I look forward to helping you keep it simple!
