2010 Junior Golf Update
We are very happy to announce that SGC Junior Golf Inc. will again be
conducting the junior golf clinics at the Stamford Golf Club this
season. The format of this year’s program will be largely the same as
last year’s. We hope to have 70 juniors enrolled in our Tuesday morning
program and we are also planning to continue the Elite 8 program for our
eight most accomplished golfers on Saturday afternoons.
As promised at the end of last season we will be posting the 2010
application on the golf club website (Stamfordgolfclub.com) on the
morning of March 1, 2010 (we will not accept any applications prior to
that date). As in the past registration will be on a first come first
served basis (the first 78 paid applications will have a spot in the
program).
The age limits will be the same as last year, the minimum age will be 5
years old before July 1, 2010 the maximum age will be not over 18 by
July 1, 2010. The fee this year is also unchanged at $ 20.00 per
youngster for the entire program. The Tuesday morning format will be the
same as last year, the youngsters will be assigned to one of three
groups: 9-Holers, 6-Holers and 3-Holers. The dates for the Tuesday
morning sessions are as follows: June 29, July 6, 13, 20 and 27. The
parent/junior golf tournament is scheduled for Sunday August 1, 2010.
The schedule for the 5 Tuesday sessions is as follows:
8:00 AM sharp Instruction starts for all 9-Holers followed by 9 holes of
golf.
8:45 AM sharp Instruction starts for all 6-Holers followed by 6 holes of
golf.
9:30 AM sharp Instruction starts for all 3-Holers followed by 3 holes of
golf.
The expected minimum participation is at least 3 out of 5 sessions.
The dates for the Elite 8 group are as follows: June 26, July 10, 17, 24
and 31. This group will meet on Saturday afternoons at a time which will
be posted separately.
The expected minimum participation for this group is at least 4 out of 5
sessions.
As in the past golf clubs will be available for any youngster who needs
them, we will announce club fitting days as we get a little closer to
the start of the season. We strongly urge all juniors who need to borrow
clubs from us to take advantage of the club fitting days prior to the
start of the clinics; this will greatly reduce the usual chaos during
the first day of clinics.
We are all looking forward to another excellent season and look forward
to seeing you on the golf course.
As always,
Kees Trappenburg
President, SGC Junior Golf Inc.
