Jeff Borders

Jeff was born and raised in Bonnyville, Alberta, Canada, graduating from Notre Dame High School in 1992. Excelling at both golf and hockey, he followed one of his dreams, to play professional hockey.

His career was cut short, due to injury.Fortunately, Jeff was able to pursue his other favorite sport, golf. He played for Lewis and Clark State College, and in 2001 he graduated from the San Diego Golf Academy.

His skills were applied while he was a golf instructor at the San Marcos Resort in Chandler, Arizona.

Although he is a life-long athlete, Jeff’s true calling is that of a teacher. He has spent the last 7 years teaching Boise’s youth in the Learn to Play hockey program, as well as children with special needs in the Adaptive Skating program. His goal is to help his students capitalize on their strengths and improve their skills to enjoy their sport more fully.

As the Assistant Pro golf instructor at TimberStone Golf Course, Jeff looks forward to helping students of all levels progress in their golf game while having fun.
