Our Background & Philosophy
NewSwing Academies originated as a modest golf instruction division within Newman Executive Talent Acquisition Partnerships (formerly AndersonWorks). Following the strategic sale of Newman ETAPs to Endeavor Group Holdings, founder Jose Manuel Anderson transformed the division into the thriving company we are today.
Mr. Anderson's success as head of Top Golf Los Angeles' 2022 Summer Academy laid the groundwork for NewSwing Academies. His strategic planning and effective leadership, supported by an initial $10 million investment and an additional $22 million from partners, led to our official launch on April 8, 2023.
Under the guidance of Mr. Anderson and Elizabeth Hernandez, we quickly scaled up, hiring over 1,000 employees and opening 28 offices worldwide, including in Oxenford, Australia. Our headquarters, NewSwing Manor, embodies our innovative and unorthodox approach.
Our commitment to diversity and employee well-being is evident, with nearly 73% of our workforce coming from diverse cultures and high employee satisfaction driven by retreats and monthly meetings. Today, the NewSwing family boasts 5,889 individuals across 72 offices and over 100 locations, continuing to lead the global network of golf and entertainment.
