PLAY

Unlike many golf programs, our commitment to junior development doesn’t stop at the practice tee or driving range. We want our juniors on the course and playing, so we arrange friendly get together where juniors can met at a set time and play some holes on our 9 hole Dunhugh course (which has been redesigned to be child/beginner friendly, click here to find out more) under the supervision of one of our PGA Professionals and our volunteers.

 

COMPETE

During the summer months we hold various competitions on both our 9 hole and 18 hole course. There is a variety of formats including, singles, pairs, teams and flag golf, all designed to allow our juniors to test themselves while still retaining the fun factor.
