On July 3, 2006, students from The Golf Academy of the South, a golf school of San Diego Golf Academy, participated in The Golf Channel's “Your Game Night.” TGAS students were both spectators and participants during the show, acting as an audience for guest host Charley King's presentation and asking questions.

The Golf Channel, which debuted in January 1995, is a station dedicated to showing high-quality golf-related programming. “Your Game Night,” which airs every Monday evening, is a collection of shows intended to help golfers improve their game. “Your Game Night” includes shows such as “Playing Lessons From the Pros” and “What's in the Bag,” which provide advice on improving one's game and information on the latest in golf equipment

The Golf Academy of the South students viewed the visit not only as an exciting diversion, but also as an opportunity for exposure to one of the avenues a golf career can take. “These trips allow our students to consider the media end of the golf industry for their future,” said Alan Flashner, Placement Director and Instructor at The Golf Academy of the South.

San Diego Golf Academy has been helping students enter golf careers for more than 30 years. With golf schools in San Diego, Arizona, Myrtle Beach, Orlando, and Hawaii, SDGA has given more than 5,000 students the education they need to get the golf job of their dreams. To help students get their foot in the door of an exciting golf career, the SDGA-owned golf employment company, GolFutures, successfully places more than 85% of the school's graduates in golf jobs. Whether students decide to pursue a golf career at a resort, in administration, or in various media outlets such as “Your Game Night” and The Golf Channel, San Diego Golf Academy is dedicated to providing its students with everything they need to succeed.
