Edgar coaches all ages and skill levels. As a coach, part of his objectives for his pupils is to create simple and clear practice routines, for the short, medium and long terms. Achieving a more consistent and enjoyable game is one of his mottoes.

At Palheiro Golf Edgar is involved with every and anything golfy. Promoting the game with both juniors and adults, organizing tournaments and events, setting up the everyday layout of the course, implementing and organizing the Golf Academy, which has an annual average of about 50 youngsters, or even mending clubs, are all part of this golf pro's day-to-day life.
