Fall might not seem like the ideal time to launch a new coaching program. Many coaches are wrapping up a busy season, dealing with weather changes, or planning to take a well-earned breather. But what if fall was actually the smartest time to start something new?
Here is a quick rundown of what you will learn:
Fall isn’t too late to start Operation 36—it’s the best time to prepare for a strong spring.
Bottom line: Start small now, and we’ll guide you every step of the way. Let's dive in!
If you’ve been considering Operation 36 but have hesitated to take the leap, here are three common myths that might be holding you back and why fall might be the best season to begin.
Truth: Fall is actually a strategic soft launch window.
By starting in the fall, you don’t have to go big. Many coaches use this time to run a 4–6 week pilot with a small group of juniors or beginners. It’s a chance to get familiar with the curriculum, train staff, and see how the program flows without the pressure of a packed schedule. Come spring, you’ll already have a foundation in place and be ready to scale.
“It gave me time to work out the kinks. By the time spring came, we looked like pros.” – Operation 36 Coach
Truth: Operation 36 gives you tools to keep players engaged year-round.
The worry is real: coaches fear starting in the fall only to lose progress during the winter. But with OP 36, you get winter-ready tools like mobile app challenges, off-course assignments, and templates for indoor learning or virtual engagement.
Even if you don’t run classes, you can keep students and families connected and excited to return in spring.
Truth: Waiting means starting from scratch—when you’re already stretched thin.
Spring is often one of the busiest seasons for golf coaches. Trying to implement something new during that chaos? Not ideal. Fall gives you breathing room to learn the platform, customize your schedule, and create buzz around your 2026 launch.
“We built everything in fall, ran one match, and by spring, we were ready. Best decision we made.” – Operation 36 Coach
If you’ve been waiting for the “perfect time,” this might be it. A short fall pilot gives you a low-risk way to explore the program, get your staff aligned, and roll into 2026 ahead of the game.
Want help getting started? The Op 36 support team will be with you every step of the way! We’ll guide you through running a fall program in just a few weeks, ensuring you're set up for success.
