PGA HOPE Session

The Mini-Cassia PGA Jr. League is the perfect summer program for young golfers of all skill levels. Our goal is to create a fun, supportive environment where kids can learn the game, build confidence, and enjoy friendly competition.

The league runs for 9 weeks (June and July), with lessons every Monday morning and matches every Thursday evening. We know summers can be busy with vacations and family plans, so there are no set teams—simply sign your golfer up for the Thursday matches they can attend.

During matches, players are paired—often with friends—and play a 6-hole team format, keeping things fun, social, and low-pressure. Parents are highly encouraged to come watch and support on match nights—players appreciate the guidance and encouragement!

We’ll also host two special family matches, where a parent or family member can join in—these are always a highlight of the season.

Lessons cover all aspects of the game, so beginners are absolutely welcome. Each golfer will need their own set of clubs.

This league is all about helping kids fall in love with golf—with engaging practices and relaxed, team-based matches that take the pressure out of the game.

Spots are limited!
For questions or to register, call or text McKell at 208-431-5043.


Mini Cassia PGA Jr. League

2026 Lewiston Golf & Country Club PGA Jr. League

A fun, team-based golf program designed for junior golfers ages 13–17 of all skill levels. This 8-week program, beginning June 4, focuses on player development, confidence, and learning how to play the game in a supportive, competitive environment.

Practices and most matches will take place on Thursdays from 2-3 PM at Pierce Park Greens. There will be two matches with the Lakeview Golf Course program. June 16th at Pierce Park starting at 3 PM and June 30 @ Lakeview at 5 PM.

Each session will balance time between the practice areas and on-course play, helping players develop sound fundamentals while learning how to apply skills in real playing situations. Practices emphasize teamwork, sportsmanship, and course management, while on-course experiences build confidence, decision-making, and enjoyment of the game.

Whether your junior golfer is new to competitive golf or looking to sharpen their skills and prepare for high school or tournament play, PGA Junior League provides a welcoming pathway to learn, improve, and have fun with friends.
