Hamrick Golf’s
Junior Development Program
2022 SUMMER SEMESTER
Thanks for showing interest in Hamrick Golf’s Junior Development Program. The program will be held at both Elkhorn Golf Club and Micke Grove Golf Links. This program is designed to introduce juniors (6-14) to the game and help them understand how it is played. Playing from different positions (putting/chipping/pitching/approach), the students will play holes and learn:
-
Basic Putting, Chipping, Pitching, and Full Swing Skills
-
How to keep a scorecard
-
Basic rules and etiquette
While providing a fun and competitive atmosphere, the students will also be introduced to basic shot making skills and mental concepts.
The program is made up of 4 groups
GOPHER’S 1&2 (Ages 6-9), LITTLE LINKSTER’S (9-11), and BIG BOMBER’S (10-14).
Group Breakdown
GOPHER’S 1 & 2 (Beginner/ 6-9 Years Old) MICKE GROVE- This group will be focused on teaching the order of play, marking your golf ball, etiquette, and how to keep score on a scorecard. We will only be putting and chipping in this group, and practicing on the putting green only. No course access. Gophers 2 is for beginners who have done the program before and have some experience on playing and understand how to keep a scorecard.
LITTLE LINKSTER’S (Intermediate Beginner/ 9-11 Years Old) ELKHORN GOLF CLUB- This group will continue to learn how to play the game, but will now use the golf course to do so. The students will be introduced to pitching and playing from those distances as well. There will also be closest to the pin and long drive competitions while on the course. This group requires walking the course, push carts recommended.
BIG BOMBER’S (Advanced Beginner/ 10-14 Years Old) ELKHORN GOLF CLUB- This group will continue to use the golf course, but will be for older kids or more advanced juniors. The students will be introduced to approach shots and playing from those distances as well. There will also be closest to the pin and long drive competitions while on the course.
