TGP Programs at Canal Shores

Junior Essentials
Spring | Summer | Fall
The Junior Essentials program at The Golf Practice is an age specific (ages 5-14) introduction to the game of golf. The program’s goal is to get young golfers excited about learning and participating in the sport. We nurture this excitement by using a variety of non-traditional tools to assist our junior golfers on their path to discovery.
Through skill-based game playing, drills, and contests, players continue to build their athleticism and golf movement skills while understanding methods and techniques used to move the ball around the course.

It is geared towards young golfers who can demonstrate basic playing skills, a primary understanding of golf rules and etiquette, have previous golf course experience, and show an interest in competitive golf.
