PGA Junior Golf League (PGAJL)
Ages 13 & Under: $275
The PGAJL is a fun, social and inclusive opportunity for boys and girls, ages 13 and under, to learn and enjoy the game of golf from PGA Golf Professionals. Like many other recreational youth sports, participants wear numbered jerseys and play on teams with friends. Team practices are held weekly throughout the program from May through July with team matches in June and July. To create a less stressful golf environment all matches are played in a two-person scramble format. It is recommended juniors have experience playing on the course, are able to carry their own clubs, and make decisions on the course without the assistance of their parents. To register visit www.pgajuniorleague.com and sign up your junior for Glen Erin’s PGA Junior League.
Level Up Junior Golf Program (LUJGP)

The LUJGP is for boys and girls ages 5 - 18. Juniors are paired in groups based on age and skill level. Skill is assessed the first week of the program and kids are awarded colored bag tags (similar to karate belt colors) to indicate their skill level. As juniors level up, they will earn new bag tags displaying their improving skills. This program is designed to teach juniors essential golf skills in putting, chipping, full swing, rules and etiquette, and course management. Kids will learn these skills through fun games and challenges meeting weekly on Tuesday mornings beginning on June 13th and concluding at our Junior Golf Championship and banquet August 8th.
