Great experience
It was a great way to introduce my son to the game of golf. We’ve played a couple of rounds together as a family but it was so beneficial to see him play with kids him age who understood the etiquette and rules of the game. It really peaked his competitiveness while also teaching him to respect his teammates and the courses we played on.
Great coach! Fun atmosphere and good parents
It’s a great environment for my 10 year old girls to learn the sport. Coach Mark Thornewell is excellent and has been instrumental in my girls enjoying the game and improving their skills.
Structured play
The kids get to meet your friends and play with kids their age also on very nice courses
Great low pressure but still competitive environment
My daughter and I absolutely love the program.
I love what the program offers not only golf experience, but it also offers mentorship
We’ve had a great experience so far! Coach Keith is great with kids.
Competitive but casual environment. Great that we can walk the course and have shortened tees
Great intro to competitive golf. Supportive, engaging, low pressure format.
Family friendly and great for kids
Mark Thornwell is the best!
Instruction, team environment, learning how to play and etiquette.
Besides professional instruction, the best part is the opportunity for youth to get on course experience playing, learning from successes/mistakes in a safe nurturing environment all while having some friendly competition.
Weather and cancellations were disappointing. Would recommend less Weekend practices in the future as well (non Fridays or Sundays). All in all a great experience!
My son likes this league because of the opportunities to play new courses and be a part of a team.
Gavin and the Matt’s have been fantastic hosts trying to balance out all the challenges of running these tournaments with difficult conditions. They’ve gone the extra mile to try to connect with the kids and make them feel comfortable. They’ve also done a nice job encouraging the kids to respect the game and the rules in a healthy way.
It's a great program! no complaints!
Competitive but still fun format
It’s a great way for kids to have friendly competition and learn to love the game.
Gives my son an opportunity to play with kids his age and to experience different courses
PGA Jr. League fosters healthy competition and collaborative teamwork. My nephew has been enrolled in tte program for several years and he absolutely loves it.
My kids always had a great time. I especially liked the fact that they could play as a team, helping each other out instead of competing against each other.
Best coach!
Coach Mark!
Kid liked it very much and would like to participate more
Loved the course work.
This was the first year of competitive golf for my two sons. It was a fantastic way for them to gain access to great courses and to learn the rules, etiquette and how to play golf. I would recommend for any student who is beyond beginning level and is at an intermediate level to play. It was also a great time for the parents to walk with the players and just be with other like-minded parents. Mark Thornewell at Haworth CC did a great job.

This gives kids an opportunity to play on a team for a sport they love just like other sports that are more widely available like baseball and basketball. My son also made a travel team and got to play at some of the nicest courses in our area. We didn’t know how to pursue my sons love of golf so he could continue to grow in the sport and potentially make his high school team, until we found this.
