Whether it’s golf for the little ones or the older kids, we have a program for everyone. Select from one of our Junior Programs below using our easy selector.
Pee Wee Golf is aimed at the youngest golfers, aged 3 to 5 years. Through fun and enjoyable golf games, they’ll learn basic skills, etiquette and safety when playing and get to interact with other children of a similar age group and ability.
Our Pee Wee classes are the most popular junior group we offer, with many of the students continuing their development with us until they are old enough to then take the next step in their golfing career and join a golf club.

This program is for students of ages 7-15 years old who have previous golf experience. Depending on the amount of students and where available, this intermediate class will be split into 6-10 years and 11-15 years to make the classes a better learning environment for all students involved.
Our intermediate program is specifically designed to create confident young golfers and encourage them to see golf as a life-long sport. Each child will learn in a relaxed and fun environment with a strong emphasis on interactive learning through target based games. Using the US Kids golf booklets, coaches track progress each week and with the opportunity for students to continue learning at home.
The program is split into 5 sections: Putting, Around the Green, Full Swing, Knowledge and Scoring. Students must complete all sections of the program and be signed off by the teaching professional in order to move to the next level. Badges and certificates are received on completion of each section.

The Level 2 or “Cadet” program is the next step on our Junior Development Pathway. All participants of this program must have completed the Junior Intermediate Program within the Sydney Golf Academy.
In Cadets, students are further tested using the same systems as the intermediate class with an increased difficulty. The fundamentals of each section are more detailed, giving each student a better understanding of the golf swing they are developing. Although more difficult, the groups focus is still keeping the game of golf fun, to ensure a lifelong passion and love for the game, helping to grow the participation of golf in Australia in the future.
The group takes full use of all facilities here including the driving range, short game area and putting green

This is the final stage of our Junior Development Pathway. At this Point, participants have the choice to either continue with the learning booklets, and test themselves with the Level 3 or “Elite” achievements or, move into the Elite on Course.
Elite students begin scoring regularly over 9 holes starting in a modified length and modified rules setting. Pupils will learn how to keep simple stats and learn how to assess their strengths and weaknesses from them. When on-course, the course they play is lengthened as they improve their skills and perform a qualifying score. A practice routine is introduced to Elite students at this stage as it is helpful to be practising specific skills while on the driving range. Time on the range and short game areas are also included with continuous improvement a focus.
