Junior Golf Academy

The year-round Junior Academy provides a holistic approach to player development, split into two phases

  • Junior Development Programme

    These are the foundational years where we focus on developing:

    • the person
    • the athlete
    • the golfer

    Kids learn in their respective age groups (4-6, 7-9 & 10-12), with classes available mid-week and at weekends.  The philosophy is around creating an environment where the kids are safe, but also where they feel encouraged to be themselves and express themselves creatively.

    By overcoming regular challenges, children embark on a journey of self discovery and exploration, guided by our expert team of coaches.  We want children to develop a strong relationship with learning, which means they’ll have lots of fun and enjoyment as they’re doing so.

  • Junior Performance Programme

    The Junior Performance Programme is designed for kids already playing on the course, and developing their competitive and performance skills.

    These are the developmental years, where the kids’ relationship with the sport changes and evolves. It becomes more results based, at which point they need to show the responsibility required to understand where they are on their journey and that they’re accountable for their own progress.

    We coach based on what skills need to be developed, based on how they play.  Throughout this phase there is a strong emphasis on playing and becoming competitive.  Competition drives the thirst for more knowledge!  Part of the programme during this phase is that the kids will play weekly competitions.

    You can expect the following as part of the programme:

    • One to one

The Hertsmere Hawks

New for the 2024-25 Season is the birth of our Junior Golf Teams, The Hertsmere Hawks!

Captained by Daniel Lana, this presents opportunities for all juniors to represent The Hawks at home and away against other clubs and participating in external competitions.

We will also be participating in the Golf Sixes, an exciting and innovative playing format for juniors getting started, giving the young golfers the opportunity to play on the golf course in a format that is fun, team based and suitable for beginners.
