Boys
and girls 10 through 18 years old are eligible to
participate in the Wichita Junior Golf program. The
junior must be 10 no later than August 31 of the current
year.
1. The west side beginner program at Auburn
Hills Golf Course. The east side beginner program
is held at All
Star Adventures at 1010 N Webb Road.
2. Other juniors who have never been in a golf
program must enroll in one of the beginner programs.
3. Junior golfers who wish to transfer from
another junior golf program to the WJGF program, and are
older than 10 years of age, will enroll in one of the
beginner programs at Auburn Hills or All Star
Adventures. When the pro and the leader have determined
that the junior has adequate skills and knowledge of the
rules of golf, the junior may be transferred to a
regular program as space allows.
The beginners program
provides instruction in rules and etiquette, chipping,
putting and the full swing. One class day is spent on
the golf course for 3 holes of play. The junior golfer
spends only one summer in the beginners program and
advances the next summer to one of the other five golf
courses.
In the regular program, the
junior golfers play on the course every Monday. Scores
are recorded to determine the junior's advancement in
the program to reach the 18 hole level. Instruction in
rules and etiquette and golf skills are also given
every week. The 18 hole group has the opportunity to
be involved in team play with juniors from the other
courses.
