New London Junior Golf
“One of the most fascinating things about golf is how it reflects the cycle of life. No matter what you shoot – the next day you have to go back to the first tee and begin all over again and make yourself into something.” ~Peter Jacobsen
The Tuesday Junior Golf program at Shamrock Heights runs for 6 weeks and is for junior golfers of all ages. Each group will have a 55-minute clinic. We incorporate core life values, strong golf fundamentals, and a lot of fun! We are trying to build on the previous years but make this years groups more skill level based. It will lead to better lessons and overall experience for all the different skill levels. There are several factors that help determine what group your junior golfer should play in. These include age, golfing experience, ability, and overall maturity. We will work with you to make sure your junior golfer is placed in the correct group. The professional staff reserves the right to move junior golfers into a different group after the season starts.
