LONG TERM JUNIOR DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM

With our junior development programs we strive to give our junior players the coaching, instruction and positive support they need for them to improve their games and grow as players and individuals. All of our young players have the opportunity to work and learn in a fun, supportive and safe environment.

We want our young players to be excited about the game and to grow a true love for the game. It is key for them to have and build the necessary skills needed. Our programs help junior players create the appropriate skills, mindset and confidence needed for the golf course.

Why do players enjoy our programs and have so much success? Durable and lasting progress is sometimes difficult to measure in golf. We have the score, obviously, but the gradual improvements don’t always show up on the course as quickly as we would like. And even when they do, the inevitable peaks and valleys of performance can make it difficult for golfers to truly measure learning and progress.

In the absence of quality coaching, players may begin to wonder whether they are working on the right thing, why their hard work is yet to pay off, and if they are actually getting any better. This is one reason why our jr development programs are so successful. We introduce creative ways to motivate students to stick to the improvement process. Through games and skill based coaching, we can design satisfying work that will push and challenge students to complete all the vital steps of skill acquisition.
