SGA Juniors

sga juniors logo

Welcome to Southport Golf Academy – Junior Membership Section  – PLEASE CHECK THE COACHING PAGES.

It is so important for juniors to get out and play a course, but so difficult to do so – courses in the area rightly expect high standards and therefore the opportunities for juniors to play can be restricted. We feel that it is our role to provide this opportunity and teach beginners and developing golfers not only technique but the correct rules and etiquette that is expected from the prestigious clubs in the area. Our academy golf course is designed to provide a realistic test, with all the attributes of what players will encounter during their golfing lifetime and allows junior golfers the experience to develop into the club members of the future. After learning about course management, golfing etiquette and the rules during lessons, our juniors are able to put into practice what they are told in a safe and relaxed environment on course under the direct supervision of staff and volunteer junior organisers.

Since its formation, the current junior membership scheme can boast no less than 5 junior club captains, 6 Lancashire boys squad members, a Lancashire Girls U18 Elite squad captain and a National Skills Champion (from 1200 participants).

Pathway to Membership at Local Golf Clubs

SGA has been accredited as the official junior teaching academy to a number of local golf clubs. Widely regarded as one of the most desirable areas for golf in the country, demand for membership at clubs in the area is extremely high. As is understandable, the challenges that championship golf courses of these standards present would cause problems for inexperienced junior golfers. Our link with these clubs has given us the responsibility of taking new or inexperienced juniors wishing to join the clubs and preparing them for life as a member. Our accredited junior coaching program covers all aspects of technique needed to play the game but more importantly teaches the etiquette and rules demanded by the highest standard of golf clubs.

Once the junior has achieved the desired standard, we are able to recommend them for membership at the next intake, ensuring the ability and knowledge required by the golf club are met.

This link also gives us the ability to simplify the process for any of our junior members to move on to these clubs when their ability and ambition exceeds the facilities at the Academy.
