Timothy Backhouse
Head Academy Professional
Tim began his coaching career at his local club, Bromborough, where he gained valuable experience working with golfers of all levels. Driven by a passion for the game and a desire to reach the highest levels himself, he sought guidance from Alan Thompson, who also coached Tommy Fleetwood. This collaboration significantly deepened Tim’s understanding of the golf swing and enhanced his coaching abilities.
In 2010, Tim relocated to the Middle East and joined the coaching team at The Royal Golf Club in Bahrain. He eventually became Head Professional, where he was responsible for coaching the national team and some of the country’s top golfers. This role was a pivotal step in his career, leading to his move to the academy at Jumeirah Golf Estates in 2014. At this world-class facility, Tim works with a diverse range of golfers, including national team members, top amateurs, everyday golfers, and beginners. His extensive experience and expertise enable him to effectively help each golfer improve, regardless of their skill level.
