The Park District of Highland Park is teaming up with The Golf Practice again this summer to deliver the most comprehensive approach to golf training on the North Shore. Through The Golf Practice’s multi-level camps and programs, your junior golfer has a complete path from beginner to high school varsity golfer, and beyond.
What makes The Golf Practice different?
The Golf Practice takes a holistic approach, helping students build athleticism, coordination, and confidence on and off the course. Camps feature fast-paced stations and energetic coaches to spark curiosity and a love for the game. As skills grow, players can advance to High School Prep 11u and 14u Camps for the next level of training.
Half Day Golf Camp
Ages 5-11
The Experience:
Half Day Golf Camp, Level 1 of our three Summer Camps offered in Highland Park, is for beginners or students with limited experience. Over 30 years of junior golf training has taught us that students must first show curiosity before learning can occur. We foster this curiosity through fun gameplay, colorful stations, and our high-energy coaches. While your junior golfer will learn the fundamentals, our main focus of this camp is to show students that golf is fun. We guarantee your junior golfer has never experienced a golf camp like this!
Friend pairing requests are (usually) granted and club rental is available.
