Our Story

Building excellence in golf education and experiences

Founded in 2009, Insider Nova began with a simple mission: to provide golfers with unparalleled access to Europe's finest golf courses and world-class training programs. What started as a small golf consulting business has grown into the premier golf experience company in Australia, serving clients who demand the highest quality in golf education and travel.

Our founder, James Mitchell, a former European Tour professional, recognized the need for a service that could bridge the gap between amateur golfers and the exclusive world of European golf. With his extensive network of contacts and deep understanding of the game, he created Insider Nova to offer golfers the opportunity to train with the best coaches and play on courses typically reserved for professionals and elite members.
