Our Facilities
Driving Range
The Jason Floyd Golf Academy utilises year round access to our grass driving range, spectacularly set in the watchful eye of the beautiful Sierra Bermeja Mountain range, the Rock of Gibraltar and Africa just across the sea.
Whilst most countries are stuck in their indoor facilities or forced to hitting off range matts during the winter months, we are very fortunate to still be practicing our skills on the turf, ensuring our Student-Athletes reliable strike feedback that grass surfaces provide no matter the time of year.
Short-Game Area
The Short-Game Area offers the opportunity to perfect any short game shot imaginable, encouraging the inner creativity of our Student-Athletes to be better prepared when faced by any shot on the golf course.
From nippy spinners off tight lights to high, floating lob shots out of the rough, simple bump and runs, to soft landing bunker shots all options catered for. Again, all grass surfaces, 12 months of the year.
Putting Green
Our large, slopping putting green provides our coaches with opportunity to challenge the Student-Athletes in all aspects putting. Green reading is an essential skill component to successful putting and the Student-Athletes are fortunate to have such a challenging practice green to help enhance this skill making it that bit easier on the golf course.
The Student-Athletes are all educated in the Aimpoint Expressing Green Reading system, used by many of the worlds best players, including Justin Rose, Tommy Fleetwood, Adam Scott and Dustin Johnson.
36 Holes of Golf Course
The San Roque Golf Club boasts two fantastic championship golf courses, the Old Course and the New Course.
Both courses have hosted European Tour events including the 2005 (Old Course) and 2006 (New Course) Spanish Open on the European Tour and 14 time host to the European Tour School Final stage. We utilise both courses , allowing our students to practice all the necessary skills for tournament performance.
With an average of 5 tee boxes per hole and large, spacious greens which permit an extensive variety of pin positions, the courses can be set up to challenge golfers of all abilities.
The Club House
Our students have full access to all club house facilities at the The San Roque Club. This includes changing rooms and showers to freshen up after physical sessions and a bar/restaurant where they can enjoy a bite to eat looking out over unspoilt views of the Mediterranean sea.
"Dawn Suitor – Mother of Triple A Future Student, Joseph Trevisani"
"We enrolled our son in the Jason Floyd Golf Academy two years ago and his golf technique has improved significantly. They also instilled a greater love for the game. They truly live the three pillars of their approach - Mental, Techique & Physical. It is how they approach golf as the true sport that it is. Sportsmanship, professionalism, mentorship, and friendship is what makes this academy stand heads above the rest!"
"Joseph Trevisani – Triple A Future Student"
"Very serious golf academy with very kind instructors. You have one-on-one personal coaching. The technique training and physical training improved my game immensely. They incorporate technology into the training program to analyse the golf swing and what areas need improvement. A professional team!"
"Marcus & Susanne Feistmantl – JFGA Full Time Student Parent"
"Looking for the right place all over Europe for our son to develop his golf and academics equally we finally placed him in the Jason Floyd Golf Academy program, for his last three years of school. JFGA has amazing facilities at the San Roque Golf Club and a fantastic cooperation with the Sotogrande International Boarding School next to it. Our son strongly believes that success is not a door, but a staircase. This is exactly, what JFGA is providing to our son and his future."
"Alex Christensen, JFGA Full Time Student Parent"
"Golf is a very personal game and after attending a few academies that were too “one size fits all” I was looking for an Academy that would provide that personal touch for my son Tiger. The Jason Floyd Golf Academy provided exactly that, the individual, personalised approach that Tiger needed to be the best player he can be. Thanks to Jason and his team, Tiger earned a scholarship to Oklahoma State University and I couldn’t be happier for him!"
"Christoph Martin, JFGA Full Time Student Parent"
"Our son Maxi is entering his 3rd year with the Jason Floyd Golf Academy and we are extremely happy with his progress & development - not only as a golfer but also as a person. The JFGA Team are not only educating him in golf specific skills, but also developing skills he will benefit from, in his daily life. I value this comprehensive approach very highly. "
"Austin Carey – Managing Director Blue Machinery and father to Rowan Carey winner 2013 Oceanic World Kids Championships"
"It’s is fantastic to see the JFGA Junior Tour is becoming so successful. The Tour officials have vast experience in competing at the highest level of golf. Additionally I feel they have a huge interest in developing our kids to becoming the best players they can be. I’ve been most impressed with the fantastic selection of quality golf courses on their schedule and course set-ups, which fit perfectly to the age groups. My son has been playing competitive golf all around Europe for the last 4 years and I feel allowing junior golfers to experience the fun yet competitive environment created on the JFGA Junior Tour is wonderful. The juniors can measure their progress against others boys and girls of similar ages, which is absolutely essential.’ I would urge all you parents to get your kids down and support these events where they will make memories and friends for life! Good luck to all and happy golfing!"
"George Bris – JFGA Junior Tour Player"
"I truly appreciate the opportunity the JFGA Junior Tour give to all of us junior golfers to compete on some of the best golf courses in Europe and win great prizes, thanks so much."
"Costa Karkaletsos – Father to JFGA Junior Tour player Zak Karkaletsos"
"The JFGA Junior Tour is brilliant!! Well done. The juniors play only on top championship golf venues and are really well looked after from start to finish. Furthermore it gives the kids a great insight into what it might be like on the Professional Tours. As for James Reiss who is the Tour Director all I can say is top man!!"
"Carlos Rodiles – 2003 Volvo Masters runner-up"
"I don’t think Juniors have enough opportunities to compete at a young age in Spain or in Europe. To really pursue a career in golf you need compete as much as possible and the JFGA Junior Tour gives juniors this opportunity. To compete on the finest venues in Europe at low cost is invaluable experience and one I recommend to all aspiring young golfers. I am very happy to support the Junior Tour."
"Rod Bastard – General Manager Marbella Club Golf Resort and Professional Golf"
"I believe that golf is learnt on the driving range but perfected in competition. There is no substitute for experience gained under pressure and that opportunity is provided by the JFGA Junior Tour. These young players will be drawing on these experiences for the rest of their golfing lives. Well done and good luck to all the players."
"Giuliano Michellini – Father of Riccardo Michellini, student of the Jason Floyd International Junior Golf Academy years 2010-2011 and 2011-2012"
"When Riccardo arrived in Sotogrande at age 16, he was a pretty fair player but he just hit the ball, and did not understand completely the tecnique of golf swing. At IJGAS he found a premium level staff that has transformed him all around: the swing, body fitness, mind condition teachers allowed him to go throught all the details acquiring a level of knowledge that for sure he will treasure for the rest of his player life. During my several visits at the Academy I’ve always been impressed by the huge amount of instruments, drills and devices from the simpliest to the most high tech. Each time I’ve found something new and even more impressive. In a few words it’s been a great pleasure for me to see how much the PASSION for teaching of Jason and his Staff have constantly improved the quality of the Academy. Moreover, as a parent it’s been a great happiness for me to see my son Riccardo grow into a self-sufficent person in his every day life. He has learned to schedule his time in order to conjugate his golfing with his school commitments. Now he is going to get his InterBaccalureate Diploma at school and as from next fall he’ll compete as a San Diego State University player in the NCAA tournament. A new chapter in his player’s life and honestly… if he is ready now, it’s thanks to Jason and his Staff, to whom I will be always grateful. Great job done! Many, many thanks!"
"Mariano López – Father of Mario López, student of the Jason Floyd International Junior Golf Academy annual programmes 2010- 2011 and 2011 -2012"
"I trusted the Jason Floyd Golf Academy to have and look after what I love most in life: my son Mario. I was looking for an academy with a difference that will develop him on a personal and golfing level. Two years later I have to say that the experience was outstanding and that I would take the same decision again without any doubt. Mario has development tremendously both as a person and a professional under the wing of Jason Floyd´s very talented and professional Team."

Jason’s professional approach has been appreciated by all of us..."
"Charlie Wi – Winner of the Maybank Malaysian Open 2006 on the European Tour and six times winner on the Asian Tour"
"I met Jason in September 2003 whilst playing at the Omega European Masters. At that time I was really struggling with my game out on Tour and lacking direction. Jason identified some serious flaws in my swing and we subsequently spent several months working on swing improvements. In 2004 success and the results came; Jason’s work helped me to two Asian Tour victories and to earning my US PGA Tour card."
"Ewen Murray – Sky Sports Lead Commentator and former European Tour Player"
"Coaching a top tour player is no easy job. You know they are blessed with a huge amount of natural talent and on their day can produce outstanding golf You can become too involved, then you live and breathe every shot they hit. The highs are way up there and the lows are a long ways down. Jason Floyd is one of these tour player coaches, and he will know what I have just described, to the letter. I have no hesitation in saying Jason is one of the most intelligent young coaches in golf today, one who has moved on from bygone days and into the modern era. If you are serious about taking your game to another level, and prepared to put in the work required to achieve that goal, then turn right and go down that road with Jason. His work ethic will match yours at its strongest."
"Gareth Paddison – New Zealand – European Tour Player"
"As a coach Jason’s been fantastic to work with, he has a lot of understanding about the golf swing and has created a swing for me that will perform under the relentless pressure of professional golf. He also cares about the golfers he works with and for me this has built up a trust, respect and friendship for us both. Thanks Jason."
"Mike Stewart – European Tour Director of Qualifying School"
"It was fascinating to see the results on video and I must say that your advice was simple, and unique – no one has ever mentioned my right arm before. In the short time I have been working on it the results appear to be very positive and encouraging."
"Craig Williams – Wales / European Challenge Tour Player"
"His personable nature, enthusiasm for the game and vast knowledge are the reasons why I and other tour professionals work with Jason Floyd."
