JUNIOR GOLF SUMMER LEAGUE

The George W. Dunne Junior Golf League is designed to bring a “Little League” atmosphere to the game of golf. With teams of boys and girls, age 14 and under our Junior Golf League provides a structured league environment for young golfers to compete and have fun! This is a great way to get, and keep, kids involved in the game!

JUNIOR UNIQUE PERFORMANCE COACHING PROGRAM

DISCOVER THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TEACHING AND COACHING

4 & 6 month programs available

PROGRAM BACKGROUND

I believe there is a profound difference between Teaching & Coaching. Coaching takes a holistic approach to the game of golf where the Coach develops a relationship with the student to understand their strengths and weaknesses and how the student will react and perform in different situations. The coaching program takes great commitment from both student & teacher. This program is designed as an advanced, coaching program for golfers that are ready to take their game into competition, play in tournaments or are looking for a long term game improvement plan.
