Larissa Blackbourn

I first picked up a golf club at age 7 and have never looked back!
The highlights of my amateur career were winning the NZ Amateur Championship at age 14 and finishing 5th at the Callaway Junior World Championship in San Diego in 2017. I was fortunate enough to represent New Zealand in the Commonwealth Trophy, Queen Sirikit Cup and trans-Tasman events. I briefly attended Arizona State University on a scholarship before returning home to pursue a career in coaching.
 
Having completed my PGA apprenticeship in 2017, I’m now a fully accredited member of the NZ PGA and my passion now lies in coaching and helping people get the most enjoyment out of their golf. My PGA studies paired with my experience as an amateur golfer, has given me a wealth of information that I now use to help my clients.
 
My coaching philosophy centres on the belief that a functional golf swing comes from identifying and understanding the root causes of each golfers ball flight and club delivery issues, and then creating a plan for change. I believe that a long-term approach to learning and a commitment to practice and change is the key to improvement!
 
My specialty is in beginner women’s group coaching, but I’m here to help anyone from a single figure golfer, through to those who are just picking up a golf club for the first time.

Steven Heyes

Hi, my name is Stevie Heyes, and I am a full NZPGA member. My journey in golf has been enriched by the mentorship of some of New Zealand's finest coaches.
During my time as a touring professional from 2014 to 2018, I was personally coached by legends such as Grant Moorhead, Rodney Yee, and Marcus Wheelhouse, and I garnered invaluable insights and techniques that I now impart to my students.

In addition to coaching, my personal achievements on the course over the last four years whilst completing my NZPGA Traineeship show my dedication and commitment to excellence. In 2022, I secured a commendable 7th place at the Carrus Tauranga Open, followed by an 8th place at the Augusta Funds Taranaki Open, earning recognition as a Titleist Trainee Order of Merit Winner 2022. The following year, I continued to make my mark, clinching 3rd place at the Brian Perry NZ Super 6s, 15th Place at the Carrus Tauranga Open, 4th Place at the August Funds Taranaki Open & 1st place at the Titleist NZPGA Trainee Championships. These finishes again solidified my position as the NZPGA Titleist Trainee Order of Merit Winner 2023.

Thus far in 2024, I have earned a respectable 20th place at the NZPGA Championship and a 3rd place at the Cello NZPGA Club Pro Championship.

At Stevie Heyes Golf, I am dedicated to not only refining your skills during the course but also fostering a love for the game that transcends the scorecard. Whether you're a beginner looking to take your first swing or a seasoned player aiming to elevate your game, I invite you to join me on this exhilarating journey toward mastery and fulfilment in the world of golf.
