Junior Academy
Our Junior Academy is a programme for Juniors aged 6-12 with a desire to learn golf.
It is a Passport to Golf scheme endorsed by England Golf and the Professional Golfer Association. It is a structured programme that will have the child learning every aspect of the game.
It combines coaching the golf swing and short game with teaching of rules and etiquette, fitness and well being, respect to others and different scoring formats.
The programme runs in 10 week blocks of 45 minute sessions at a cost of £50 for the 10 week block. Children can join during a block at a Pro-rata cost of £5 for each session left in the block. We also do a roll up taster session for kids slightly younger and not sure if they are ready.
