Best range promotion: At Liberty National the range facility is vital to growing the game. Over the past year the range has been used for everything from clinics with PGA Tour Professionals to the weekly junior clinic conducted on our back range tee. We have had players such as Jordan Spieth, Rory McIlroy, Phil Mickelson, Camillo Villagas, Ian Pouler, Lee Westwood, Graham McDowell, Victor Dubuisson, Jonattan Vegas, conduct clinics on our range. We also had a PGA Junior League Team in 2016 and was a great success bringing together 11 of our juniors. This team created a real buzz and camaraderie amongst our membership and our junior program while promoting the game of golf.

Special programs: Liberty National hosts a National Junior Invitational every spring drawing top junior players and college recruits regionally and nationwide. Liberty National has hosted the First Tee Classic the past two years bringing together for the first time all four local First Tee Chapters including the NY Met, Ocean/Monmouth County, Raritan Valley, and Trenton. Liberty National has worked closely with the First Tee to establish their new home at Skyway in Jersey City. Bringing together the First Tee, local officials, local school administrators and Skyway staff.
