There's a new kind of marshal patrolling the 36 holes of championship golf at La Costa Resort INDIO 11 BUS 10 and Spa. And to be honest, they really aren't marshals at all. They're called "The Golf Squad" and their job goes far beyond telling patrons how putts break, or raking a bunker for them. Each squad member comes to the assignment with special skills perfect for putting the fun back in golf. Among them, they speak six languages. One of the squad came to La Costa after a successful career as an anesthesiologist (which means you can say in all honesty, "I am playing golf on the advice of a doctor.") As the heart and soul of a new program that debuted in spring 2012 The Golf Squad is an extension of La Costa's resort-wide commitment to service excellence, with the focus being on every golfer who tees it up. "It is all about making each guest feel special," says James Hochrine, La Costa's Assistant Director of Golf, who manages The Golf Squad. The Squad is schooled in the history of golf at La Costa, trained in the idiosyncrasies of the golf courses, and expert on daily playing conditions, flagstick positions, and expected pace of play. They've even been known to reward golfers who play briskly with a voucher for the first round of beverages at Diversions Lounge, right behind both courses' 18th holes. Said Paul McCormick, vice president and general manager at La Costa Resort and Spa, "Our goal is to enhance the guest experience at every touch point. The Golf Squad embodies our mission to surpass all of our guests' expectations. They'll even take a quick snapshot of your foursome before you tee off. Anything to put a smile on your face ... that's what The Golf Squad is all about."
