Shane Carey
PGA Professional
Originally from Ireland, Shane Carey began his golfing journey at just two years old, introduced to the game by his father, an international golfer for Ireland. Although a talented multi-sport athlete growing up, competing in traditional Irish sports such as hurling and football, Shane decided at 18 to dedicate himself fully to golf, turning professional at the age of 20.
A graduate of the University of Birmingham in 2016, Shane began his professional career in Saudi Arabia, taking a position with Saudi Aramco as a Golf Consultant. There, he coached players of all abilities and supervised all golf operations, contributing to the growth and development of the game across all levels in the region.
In 2019, Shane returned home to join the prestigious Lahinch Golf Club, consistently ranked among the world’s top 50 courses. During his six years there, he coached players of all abilities, from beginners to elite competitors, several of whom went on to win Irish championships. Shane also oversaw the club’s junior programme, leading Lahinch to its first-ever All-Ireland title in the club’s history.
A TPI Level 2 Certified Professional with nearly 15 years of coaching experience, Shane combines deep technical understanding with a clear, practical approach to coaching.
His philosophy is simple: there’s no single way to swing a golf club, only the swing that works best for you. Joining the Dubai Creek Golf & Yacht Club marks an exciting new chapter, where Shane aims to inspire and support golfers of all levels to play with confidence and enjoyment.
