GSH Junior Golf Academy

Good Swings Happen Junior Golf Academy’s mission is to positively affect children’s lives through the game of golf. We place “having fun” within an enriching environment as our number one priority. We have a passion for coaching the game of golf to juniors and strongly believe that learning proper skills and a healthy mindset at an early age gives students the best opportunity to reach their full potential. We aim to inspire and to instill valuable lessons that support golf skill development and life skill development one in the same. Golf is a game for a lifetime when it is nurtured as such.

Player Levels

    LEVEL 1

    These classes are designed for 5-8 year olds who are brand new to the game or have limited experience. This first touch entry level program level aims to develop fundamentals and a love for the game.

    LEVEL 2

    These classes are geared for players 7-12 years old with limited experience who are looking to improve skills and etiquette that will allow them to play golf out on the course.

  • Three children walking on a golf course carrying golf bags with clubs, wearing golf hats and sportswear, with trees and a building visible in the background.

    LEVEL 3

    These classes are geared for players (8-13) who already have experience playing on the golf course, have taken private and group class lessons previously and have a baseline skill level and awareness of the game but are “looking to get better.” Level 3 golfers are serious about playing the game on a regular basis and participating in leagues, tournaments and organized play opportunities.
