I offer 3 Junior Golf Academy Programs with Spring and Fall Semesters which each bring golf to over 60 junior golfers of all skill levels each year with ages ranging from 6 to 18 years old. I also offer several different Summer Golf Camps, each engineered for age range and experience. The Littleist Golfer Camp for ages 4-6. The Young Champs Camp for ages 6-10. The Weeklong Half Day which is 5 Days long and runs 9am-12pm. The Weeklong Full Day which is 9am to 4pm and includes lunch and daily play on the golf course. The Tour Camp which is 9am to 4pm for 5 days and culminates with a nine hole tournament on Friday afternoon with Tour Trophies.

Please share any programming you have made to keep your customers & students engaged:
I have 3 separate and unique Academy programs offering Spring and Summer Semesters and Summer Golf Camps for all ages and skill levels. Golfers then transition into private lesson plans to continue their growth. Most then compete on our PGA Junior League Team, Middle School and High School golf teams, Local, Regional and National Junior Tours, and many of my students have transitioned into college golf with scholarships. One of my 16 year old students, named Slater Meade, has already recently committed to play college golf at Wake Forest and yet, has two more years of High School and Junior Golf to play before making his college golf debut.
