youth golf program

"What a great program, especially for underprivileged youth. We joined the program in 2012 and had 36 kids in the Tee Level program. It was very rewarding for our volunteers and instructors, but the great value was the ability to share the game with kids who may have never had the opportunity to play the game and learn the valuable skills that go hand in hand with life skills they took with them."

Dennis Creighton, Elks Youth Golf Coordinator, Sandpoint, ID
"I loved the program. I loved that my child had this opportunity despite our financial status. It has been over a year since he was a participant in the program, and he still remembers the things he was taught by his, in my opinion, excellent coaches. Thank you for letting my child have this amazing experience to all the coaches, the country club and everyone else involved."

"Golf is a game of physical and mental control and to teach that to young participants and see them grow is rewarding. To give youth the opportunity that they may never have is the purest form of fun and fundamentals that sets the foundation for the game of golf."

Green Level Training Program

The Green Level Training Program was created to give youngsters who have been introduced to golf but are not quite ready for on-course play, a program that addresses their specific needs. After all, most beginning golfers, especially children, do not realize the importance of learning the basic rules, etiquette and course management techniques needed to be successful on the golf course.

Before playing on the course, and especially before playing in competitive situations, youngsters should know how to display etiquette on the golf course, such as raking bunkers, repairing ball marks and standing away while others are hitting shots. Basic rules like not grounding your club in a hazard, how to proceed when you lose a ball or what your options are when your ball goes in a water hazard should also be learned prior to playing in competitive situations. In addition, most youngsters also need training on basic course management like avoiding hazards, playing in different weather conditions and how to properly read greens, and children will not learn these important aspects of the game unless they learn them on the golf course.

The Green Level Training Program gives youngsters practical experience on the golf course using a fun format that stresses the importance of learning the rules and etiquette of the game. The format is easy for any youth organization, recreation agency or golf course to use. The program starts with a skill evaluation of each of the youngsters and eventually takes them through practical instruction starting on the TEE and ending on the GREEN.
