Junior Development Program

Ages 13–17

Take Your Game to the Next Level

The Junior Development Program is designed for golfers ages 13–17 who have basic golf experience and are ready to move beyond basic instruction.

This program focuses on developing the skills needed to shoot lower scores, play with greater confidence, prepare for high school golf, and compete at the junior and tournament level.

Who Is This Program For?

The Junior Development Program is ideal for junior golfers who:

Already have basic golf experience
Want to improve their golf skills and lower their score
Are preparing for high school golf

New golfers ages 13–17 should begin with a private golf lesson before entering the Junior Development Program.
