  • Strategies: Scorekeeping, Pre-shot routine, Yardage charts, Approach shots, Punch shots, Ball flight, Advanced drills, Pace of Play

  • The Values: Respect, Courtesy, Sportsmanship, Honesty, Perseverance, and more!

In this level, students are provided numerous resources to add to their toolbox. Students will develop their pre-shot routine, design a yardage chart, learn how to shape their shots to their lie, and understand how to add curve to ball flight. Unlike the playing level, students will play independently with others on the golf course. Students will be culminating their study into the USGA Rules of Golf through interactive demonstrations and weekly quizzes. Students will spend 75 minutes on the golf course each week, learning how to make timely decisions and keep pace of play, compete with their peers, keep score, and understand how to improve their score, and learn how to play in golf tournaments.

Equipment is provided, though we suggest purchasing US Kids golf clubs for students.

Class size is limited to 12 and run for 120 minutes weekly.
