2008-2009 Junior Golf Program
At White Columns Country Club, there are many different ways to enjoy, learn, and play the game with other interested juniors. We have extensive fall and spring after-school clinics, weekly junior play days, parent-junior monthly tournaments, junior club championship, summer golf camps, and access to local, regional, and national junior golf tournaments.
After-school clinics are well under way! These clinics are throughout the months of September, October, and November. Weekly group lessons cover different aspects of the game and we try to visit the course as often as possible. In addition to these instructional opportunities, groups of kids are welcome to organize themselves and arrange a private clinic just for their group each month.
Throughout the winter and spring, we hold Sunday junior play days at 3pm. This program is to encourage a regular group of kids to get out and play - with out their parents-on a weekly basis. The golf shop staff pairs up the juniors who show up and send them out to play with new people on a regular basis. Although some of the kids in this group have played summer tournaments, it is not a requirement to participate-we want everybody that can play ready golf on their own to participate.
Additionally, our summer golf camps at White Columns Country Club are very popular. Beginning each June, we dedicate 5 weeks to golf events filled with various lesson activities and extensive on-course instruction. We break for 3 weeks to host the introductory 3-sport (swim, tennis, golf) camps and then we have one final summer golf camp before school resumes in August. Ages 7-15 are invited to attend the summer golf camps.
Annually, we also hold a summer Parent/Junior tournament that encourage parents to show their support for our Junior Golf Championship.
For detailed information or assistance with specific questions, please visit with any of the PGA professional staff. We are planning on a very fun and exciting golf season and would welcome any interested juniors to join in our activities!
