CentreCup will be taking our revolutionary putting training aid to the Scottish Golf Show in March 2009.

We’ve taken a stand right by a putting green and we’ll be looking tom sink thousands of putts during the weekend - just as we did at the NEC Golf Show last year.

Ian Melville, CentreCup’s designer and honourary Scot (his sons are called Callum and Logan and he’s often seen in a kilt!) said: “We’re really looking forward to the show.

“Golfers loved the CentreCup putting traing aid in Birmingham and we’re sure we’ll get an even better response at the home of golf.”

After being successfully staged at the Royal Highland Centre in Ingliston, near Edinburgh, for the past three years, the 2009 Scottish Golf Show is going to Glasgow.

The three-day golfing extravaganza will be held at the Scottish Exhibition & Conference Centre (S.E.C.C.) from March 20-22, 2009. The perfect way to tee off your golfing season, the 2009 Scottish Golf Show is the one event that no serious golfer will want to miss.

As well as giving you the opportunity to try the latest equipment from the biggest brand names in the game, it will also feature one of Scotland’s largest retail golf shops, stands from over 100 top exhibitors, short game and putting practice areas, free lessons from professional golfers, trick-shot demonstrations plus much more besides.

Whether you’re a male, female, junior or senior golfer, the 2009 Scottish Golf Show is a ‘must’ for anyone serious about the game.

Come and try CentreCup. It’ll improve your putting - we guarantee it.

Swingrite UK Ltd - manufacturers of CentreCup, the putting training aid launched to universal acclaim at the NEC Golf Show in November 2008 - has developed an additional new putter brace for CentreCup which positions the golfer’s hands ahead of the ball at address.

The new brace has been developed by Ian Melville, a PGA Professional and inventor of CentreCup, and Paul Pepper, CentreCup’s design engineer.

It gives golfers and teaching professionals the option of replacing CentreCup’s standard vertical hand and putter brace with a patented ‘offset brace’, making CentreCup instantly appealing for golfers who prefer their hands to be slightly ahead of the ball.

Said Ian: “Some golfers, particular Tour players and low handicap players, like a forward press in their putting stroke of around 3 degrees ahead of vertical.

“Scientific studies have supported the belief that forward hand positioning locks the wrists into a firmer position, reducing wrist involvement and ensuring that the golfer therefore putts with the larger muscles of the shoulders rather than with a ‘wristy’ action.

“This action also helps to keep the left wrist (for right-handed golfers) strong and firm and aimed towards the target line through the stroke.”

CentreCup has been designed to promote a Pure InLine Square Stroke and is fully adjustable along its patented Chest Brace, allowing the golfer to position the ball further forwards in their stance.

Now the new brace, which fits easily into the top part of the Putter Brace, also enables the hands to move ahead of the ball, effectively delofting the putter and minimising the chances of the ball ‘hopping’ or bouncing off the face.

Added Ian Melville: “The new brace brings an added dimension to CentreCup. While the majority of golfers will use the standard vertical brace, it was important for us to design an offset version for players who want that forward press.”
