My name is Josh Salisbury, and I am the Assistant Golf Professional at Stanley Golf Course. I was born, raised and currently live in Meriden CT with my two sons Cooper and Carson. Prior to becoming the Assistant Golf Professional at Stanley, I spent 10 years in Special Education at ACES Whitney Academy, 5 years mentoring and teaching golf at GRO-3 Golf Academy and have served in the United States Army Reserve since 2013.
The game of golf has always been a passion of mine from the first time I put my hands on a golf club. From that day forward, I knew I wanted to become a Golf Professional and help others enjoy the game as much as I do. I am truly excited to help grow the game of golf here at Stanley Golf Course. Whether you need help with your golf game, advice on golf products or any services offered here at Stanley, I look forward to providing you with an enthusiastic and professional experience.
