  • Junior Golf Programs

    Player Development Institute (PDI) – PDI For Juniors

    PDI Junior +

    Our PDI Program is targeted at junior golfers of all levels interested in developing their golf skills in every aspect of the game. Our weekly sessions are designed to progress the students – from short game practice through their long game – and facilitate the beginning of their golf journey. While there are no tournaments associated with this program, the students will be introduced to the rules of golf and gain the confidence needed to further explore their golf interests.

    The PDI Program is a year-round offering, with our primary goal being to keep our class sizes small to ensure optimal growth and learning. Class sizes are limited to approximately eight students. Parents are given the opportunity to choose from classes that are defined as Young Guns (5- to 8-year-olds) and Future Stars (9- to 13-year-olds). Young Guns classes are on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (3:30 P.M. – 4:30 P.M.) or Saturdays (11:00 A.M. – 12:00 P.M.). Future Stars classes are offered on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays (4:30 P.M. – 5:30 P.M.) or Saturdays (12:15 P.M. – 1:15 P.M.).
