Thank you for entering your children into summer golf camps at Golden Gate Park Golf Course. I’m looking forward to working with your junior golfers and helping them learn the game amongst new friends. Here are a few reminders and suggestions before we begin.
Please visit the NCGA’s Youth On Course website, explore and learn about the Junior golf scene in Northern California. Joining is a requirement for the camp. The cost is $18 per year, but green fees are drastically reduced ($5 average) at over 800 participating golf courses in California. Your money will surely be saved over time!

4 Hole Beginner Camps 8:30am to 11:30am $300.00 per Junior
The 4 Hole Beginner Camp is geared towards younger golfers, ages 5-9. This camp is appropriate for juniors that are either new to the sport or who play at a beginner level. Class will begin with a 1-hour instructional practice session on the driving range and putting green. The goal is to learn golf course etiquette and establish sound fundamentals from the get go. The group will proceed to the golf course to play 4 holes in a scramble format, that way coaches can keep the groups together and continue instruction. Following golf, campers will have a snack break and be asked to summarize what they learned. A few more swings on the range and some putts will be it for the day!
This week of camp will accept 10 students

Half Day 9 Hole Playing Camps 1pm to 5:30pm $425.00 per Junior
Half Day Camps are geared towards juniors aged 9-13. However, younger golfers who play 9 holes of golf on a regular basis are welcome to join. Golfers must have the ability and energy to play all nine holes. After an hour of practice focusing on short game, full swing and putting fundamentals, juniors will play 9 holes of golf. They will play different formats, such as a team scramble, two person best ball, possibly individual (depending on talent level). After nine holes campers will have a break, followed by a rules and etiquette clinic and quiz. Depending on the group's energy level, either a relaxed putting or driving range session will finish the day.

Full Day 18 Hole Playing Camps 9:00am to 5:00pm $725.00 per Junior
Are your juniors ready to play golf all day? This camp is geared for older juniors ages 10-15 that are ready to advance their game to the next level! Each day will start with proper warm up and short practice session. Juniors will play 9 holes of either scramble format or individual stroke play golf, followed by lunch. After lunch, juniors will discuss the challenges that they faced during their first round and look to remedy mistakes in their second nine hole round. Every day new goals for the junior will be created between themselves and coaches to keep them active in their development. At the end of the week the juniors along with their coaches input will put together a game plan moving forward for the fall months. Juniors are encouraged to bring a journal to take notes from their lessons and to measure their daily progress.
