Junior Golf Academy
The junior academy at Forest Hill Golf Club gives youngsters from the age of 5 a fantastic opportunity to learn golf. The academy programs run all year round for 8 weeks and are structured to encourage and motivate young people to take up golf. The Coaching takes place on the covered all year round driving range, short game area, putting green and the specifically designed short game practice course. Each programme consists of a 1 hour lesson each week over an 8 week period. All aspects of the game are covered starting with the basics of how to hold and swing a golf club, putting, chipping, irons, woods, golf etiquette, rules and playing the golf course. There is a premium placed on safety at the academy and all juniors are taught how to stay safe both on the driving range and on the golf course.
On completion of a coaching programme there is a certificate and trophy presentation. Each child who completes a course receives a certificate and special trophies are presented for the most improved players. Family and relatives are encouraged to come along to the occasion.
Coaching is available weekdays after school and at the weekends. Advance booking only.
