Your juniors are welcome to come to as many sessions as their schedule allows.   No sign up is necessary and there is no cost for Junior Golf.  Proper golf attire is required.  Shirts must have collars and shorts must be Bermuda length.  Denim or warm up pants/shorts are not allowed.  

We have had success with our junior program over the last few years but this year we have decided to try something new. We believe that on course play is an integral part of learning how to play the game of golf as well as how to take care of the golf course.  Tuesday’s of each week will be instructional days in which we will focus on the fundamentals of the golf swing and short game.  Wednesday’s of each week will be on course training of course management, etiquette and rules. 

Also new this year will be the Junior Golfer Incentive Program which will encourage junior golfers to be active on the course as well as on the practice facilities.  With the rising age of our junior golfers we have had many questions over the years of when it is ok for them to play on their own.  To help answer this question, we have put in place a test that they must first pass on either a Wednesday play day or with their parents.  In order for each Junior Golfer to be allowed to play on their own without adult supervision, they must first score under a target score for nine holes from the Sanctuary Tees as well as play the round in less than 2 hours walking.  If the Junior Golfer passes this playing test, they will receive a unique Wuskowhan bag tag which will signify their achievement and let everyone know they have earned the right to be on the golf course.  

We hope to see you and your juniors this summer!
