Juniors having access to competitive golf at various courses
Great way to train and have the kids learn about golf and have fun
I like the matches we are able to set up for our juniors with other clubs in our area. The kids Love it!
PGA Jr. League is my favorite program to run each year. It has completely changed the atmosphere towards junior golf at our club. I would highly recommend this program to every club that is considering it. The numbers behind it back it up from a business standpoint and then some and the word of mouth it does for our club and junior program is incredible.
We love how competitive our juniors get during matches and it is great that their parents feel the same way.
Great Introductory Program for Juniors wanting to play competitive golf.
Terrific introduction to competitive golf for kids.
PGA Jr. League makes golf feel like a team sport instead of an individual one. The scramble format takes pressure off individual scores and gives juniors the freedom to compete, make mistakes, encourage teammates, and have fun together.
From a coaching perspective, I also love that it allows me to teach so much more than the golf swing. We can develop confidence, sportsmanship, decision-making, resilience, and what it means to be a great teammate in a real on-course environment. It creates a natural bridge from learning golf to becoming a golfer and, just as importantly, gives kids a community that makes them want to keep coming back.
I like that we are growing the game and giving young players an opportunity to get on the course, make new friends, and play competitive golf.
Team environment
Kids love it!
It is a great way to teach Junior Golfers a variety of things. They learn how to make Golf fun, competitive, they learned etiquette, as well as receiving great Instruction from their local PGA Golf professional.
EVERYTHING!
It's our biggest junior program at our club, probably because it is a team event.
Everything
Comraderie…learning…fun
The impact we have on the kids lives is irreplaceable. Also the on course experience they get is invaluable to their improvement.
Team aspect while preparing kids for the next step of golf.
PGA Junior League is one of the best junior golf programs I've ever been a part of. The fun, competitive atmosphere but with low pressure. It's a great way for us as coaches to teach the game that really grasps the kid's interest. Great for the family's that get involved and come out to support their kids. I highly recommend this program and wish more clubs and coaches who aren't running this program to definitely do so.
PGA Jr. League is a fun program for both participants and coaches. It allows PGA Professionals of all experience levels with junior golf to start a program at their facility. The program uses an easy-to-follow curriculum that allows the coaches to customize their team events (practices, etc.) while still having minimum requirements (# of matches, etc.). It has given me the chance to connect with other local professionals as well as given our juniors the chance to meet other junior golfers.
how much fun it is!
The Pga Jr League has been an GREAT experience at our golf courses in Anchorage, Alaska!
Our Pga Jr League has continued to grow, bringing new golfers together to create lasting friendships with fellow golfers, and their families!
I've been teaching it for 13 years
I love working with kids. PGA Jr League is going to get more kids in to playing golf and eventually joining clubs and getting there kids playing. All of this will grow the game.
Just the bond and community it builds with parents, kids, coaches and golf course staff.
The kids really enjoy the PGA gear, and it's a great chance to get more competitive.
Team atmosphere as an introduction into competitive golf during the learning process works amazingly.
