Junior Essentials II
“Starting to catch the golf bug”
The Junior Essentials II program is designed for students who are interested in continuing to progress as golfers and have begun to develop an interest in getting better. Through skill-based games, drills, and contests, players will continue to build their athleticism and golf skills. The goal of Junior Essentials II is to prepare students to take their first steps on a golf course.
This program focuses on golf fundamentals, including:
- Continuing Swing Development – Students in Junior Essentials II have shown the ability to make consistent contact – “No more Whiffs” – but now are ready to add more shots to their arsenal. Can they hit it low under a tree? Can they hit it high over a bunker? These shots are the next step in Junior Essentials II student’s development.
- Length of Swing – Students will learn how the length of their swing affects the distance the ball travels. Successfully navigating the length of one’s swing is a key differentiator between Junior Essentials II and Junior Essentials III students.
- Balance – Students will continue their pursuit of proper balance throughout the golf swing. Junior Essentials II students have demonstrated the ability to stay balanced on even ground, but now will learn to stay balanced in a variety of uneven lies and situations.
- Beginning to Learn the Game – Students will begin learning how the game of golf is played. Up to this point student’s have viewed golf as a game of hitting a ball, now they will begin to learn the nuances of keeping score and team play
