Meet Steve Liddicoat
Head Golf Steve grew up in Gibsons, BC, on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, where he first discovered his passion for golf at the age of 14. Encouraged by friends to give the game a try, he was instantly hooked and spent every available daylight hour at the Sunshine Coast Golf & Country Club. His dedication to the sport led him to pursue a career as a Golf Professional, enrolling at Camosun College in Victoria, BC, where he graduated from the Professional Golf Management Program in 2005.
In 2006, Steve became a member of the PGA of Canada and over his professional career, he has had the opportunity to work at some of the finest facilities in the Lower Mainland including spending the last 13 years as a Head Professional.
Steve believes in keeping golf instruction simple, approachable, and tailored to each player’s needs. He focuses on helping students build confidence and enjoy the game, ensuring they leave every lesson with clear, actionable improvements. His relaxed and encouraging teaching style makes learning both effective and enjoyable for golfers of all skill levels.
Meet Matt Palsenbarg
As a local who grew up in Cloverdale, the Clayton Hills Par 3 (previously known as Sunrise) was one of the first courses Matt Palsenbarg played as a kid. He didn’t love golf right away, but he grew to love the game at a young age.
Matt has been coaching golf for over 20 years and is known for having the answers. He spent much of his career at Northview Golf & Country Club, where he served as Director of Instruction for 15 years. During his time there, he started the Tour Performance LAB elite junior program and founded LABsters, a popular junior golf initiative for kids ages 4–12.
In 2020, Matt became the Director of Instruction at Point Grey Golf & Country Club in Vancouver, where he helped launch their state-of-the-art practice facility, The Farm. While he was also owner of Langley Golf Academy and growing the game of golf with LGA and the LABsters.
In 2025, Matt returned closer to home to bring his coaching expertise to the Haus of Golf in Langley, BC, and pursue his vision of opening The Backyard Golf Company. After three summers of LABsters camps at Clayton Hills Par 3, Matt realized the course offered a unique opportunity—a missing piece waiting to be brought to life. Building a facility with junior golfers and new golfers in mind he is really pleased to bring LABsters to a new home.
Now, Matt is excited to be coaching players of all levels at both The Backyard and Haus of Golf. LABsters is poised to grow bigger than ever with a facility built for fun and learning. Whether you’re a kid discovering the game or an adult looking for a great place to hang out and improve, The Backyard and Clayton Hills Par 3 are where golf and community come together.
