We offer something for everyone
Our Philosophy – Golf is fun!
We feel that players just getting into the game do well in group programs, where they receive general golf instruction, individual tips, and an opportunity to be athletically active while socializing and developing friendships with other players. When kids have fun, they will want to keep playing the game!
As players progress in junior golf, they may want to engage in some form of competition. As this occurs, a gradual switch to incorporate more individualized instruction in their development plan is needed. Players need and enjoy a balance between working on their game and having fun at the course. It takes many hours to become a good player, so the pursuit must also remain enjoyable.
We base our programs on our past successes and feedback from our participants. We adopt many concepts of the American Development Model, which was developed by USA Hockey and is embraced by the PGA of America. It is an outstanding guide for youth sports programs. This has allowed us to create age-appropriate, fun, and engaging golf experiences for our juniors. This also has lead to our success as PGA Junior League Game Change Award Winners (2022, 2023, 2024) presented to coach Don Graham.

This camp hopes to make golf as fun as possible for junior golfers.
