“US KIDS” JUNIOR GOLF CAMPS
Our
Camps are for children 6 to 14 years old who have some golf experience.
We
expect these juniors to have their own clubs that are the proper fit for their
specifications.
Progress
(especially clubhead speed) can be severely hindered if clubs are too long or too
heavy for them.
We
have two certified US Kids Instructors on staff and we use the US Kids
experience as
it provides structured learning so success can be measured and achieved.
These six hour Camps are held on Monday & Tuesdays from
8:00 to 11:00
Six hours of instruction on and off the course
$90 per camp
Levels 1, 2, 3
Camp participants will be grouped together based on skill level.
