ACADEMY DETAILS

A year round program designed for boys and girls ages 7-16. Open to beginner golfers with no prior knowledge of the game, or intermediate to advanced golfers who want to improve their game.

Classes are organized into seven skill levels and taught by an experienced PGA golf professional. All students start at level (1) and advance to the next level only by passing a challenge test to assess their mastery of that particular level. Intermediate and advanced students may bypass lower levels by passing the level’s skills challenge. Students also receive a “character counts” lesson during each session focusing on trustworthiness, respect, responsibility, fairness, caring and citizenship.
