Coach Testimonials
I enjoy the opportunity to help young players develop their golf games and give them a vehicle to compete and meet some new friends.
The team concept and that every kid gets to participate. My team, when they are sitting out for the three holes, have really enjoyed assisting with the two that are playing. My older kids have really taken the younger ones and have become great mentors. The scramble format has less pressure for the kids to hit good shots everytime.
Great competition for the juniors. Help them learn the game and the rules. Great team sport.Also great enthusiasm from the parents. This has helped us in membership
Great experience and learning for the kids that are a little scared of playing in tournaments on their own!
Absolutely the best program to generate / develop the next generation of golfers.
The Learning, the Energy, the Enthusiasm and the Fun that coaches, kids and parents all experience!
We love the team atmosphere and having kids root for each other, working together to accomplish their goals!
Introduces kids to plying with and meeting new people. They start to support each other with complements for success and encouragement When struggling.
The friendships that are created are fantastic! The team spirit is contagious. Fun for kids, parents and instructors!
Amazing program.... the team camaraderie among the players and coaches was something special
The kids!
The kids enjoy playing and having fun with their friends. It gives that opportunity to play competitive golf without playing stroke tournamnets.
Awesome opportunity for juniors to compete and learn to be a teammate.
Organized and fun
Regardless of the time it takes and the effort involved in establishing a team, practice times, matches, etc. The kids love it and its all worth it! Its a great way to get kids actually excited about golf!

Everything. This is one of the most fun programs that I am a part of at our club. It is great to work with the kids and see their families become friends and enjoy their children's love for the game of golf!
Fantastic program !
I enjoy the opportunity for kids to get into the game of golf and have positive feedback while being on a team. I enjoy working with the kids to also help them to enjoy golf.
Kids enjoy it
I like the scramble format as I host two younger aged teams and not too much pressure to hit every shot well.
Its a great way to introduce golf in a new and fun way to young players.
Fantastic way to have fun on the golf course and learn at the same time! The energy and excitement is contagious. Awesome memories for the kids and the entire family!
Love everything about the PGA Jr League.
I like the format of a 2 person scramble match play the best to get kids into competitive golf in more of a team atmosphere.
What I like most is how the players learn from each other. The less experienced players get to learn from their peers which, in some way, can be more effective then learning from the coach. On the opposite side of that the more experienced players get to be the teachers which can be a great learning experience for them.
Great addition to our junior program. Brings kids from different facilities together, gets them playing an individual sport with a team attitude!
It's a great program for the players as it builds team camaraderie. Plus, the scramble format takes pressure off, as well as increasing the team emphasis. They love the jerseys, as well as being able to play other golf courses.
As captain, I also love the team concept as it's more fun to get the players to communicate and work as a team. It teaches them how to interact with other players and learn about match play and a complex scoring system.
yup, do it! Fun times had by all
Great program.
I am not a big fan of the all-star competitions as it works against the original idea of what I was under the impression the PGA Jr League was started for.
I thought it was meant to introduce new players to golf competition in a less threatening environment using the scramble format.
The relationships formed and the memories made are priceless for the kids and families and even our staff.
It is a win all the way around as it involves all kids of all abilities to belong to a team and learn the game and sportsmanship that will last a lifetime.
