Results of Program:
Youth golfers are able to get introduced, engaged, and integrated into the game of golf in different ways at the club. Total Revenue Generated This is not generally a revenue-generating initiative, however in the long run these young golfers will hopefully become loyal members of the game and the club.
Details of Program:
• Every Thursday morning, the golf course is reserved for junior golfers. • All children of club members are welcome to play during this period of time. • Junior golfers are designated into three different categories: 3-hole, 6h, and 9h. • At the 6h and 9h levels, some competition and games may be incorporated, but the primary goal is socialization and to round out a golfer’s experience. • Junior Golf Day fits into each golfer’s overall experience by providing:
• 3h: introduction to course play, rules, and format. • 6h: structured and league play for those who are not otherwise involved. • 9h: a more fun, social experience for tournament golfers.
Recommendations:
• Determine the guidelines for parent involvement during play. • Weekly competitions, scoring, and prizes. • Maintain communication about current and upcoming opportunities. • Junior Golf Day serves a valuable role in a youth golfer’s experience, but it’s important to identify and monitor where each golfer stands in that path.
