Junior Golf Center Annex – Queens

Ages 7 – 17
September 17 – October 29
Free

Starting this spring we will transition from our current skill-based First Tee programming to an age-based format for all programs. The First Tee is a nationwide youth development organization impacting the lives of young people by providing educational programs that build character, instill life-enhancing values and promote healthy choices through the game of golf. Students will be grouped by age levels (7-9, 10-11, 12-13, and 14+), and progress to the next course when they advance to the next age level. Once the class begins, students will be grouped based on their experience and ability.

Important Registration Information:

• Please only sign up for ONE class. Failure to comply may result in not getting accepted into the program
• Once classes reach the maximum # of students, your application will be automatically added to the waiting list. Updated information regarding the status of your application will be emailed to you in 1-2 weeks.
• Please sign up for classes based on your child’s age. For example, if your child is 10 years old, only sign up for the 10-11 year old class.
• Make sure to check your email and spam folder for confirmation emails.

Ages 7-9
This program teaches the fundamentals of golf in a fun, safe, and empowering environment. In this age group, participants are introduced to both golf and basic life skills such as meeting and greeting, respect and courtesy.

Ages 10-11
Our program for ages 10-11 supports the exploration of both character and golf skills in active and collaborative ways.

Ages 12-13
This program focuses on the development of both golf and character skills. The lessons and activities empower participants to explore both golf skills and character commitments appropriate for their stage of growth and development.

Ages 14+
Our program for ages 14+ places a greater emphasis on the personal development of participants. These lessons help participants elaborate on their understanding and applying what they have learned to new situations on and off the course as they evaluate, and provide evidence of their new understanding of life and golf skills.
