Junior Scoring Boot Camp: Putting

Joplin Area PGA Junior League is a program designed to have juniors practice and play in a team format. 

The league will be held at 4 different courses. Carthage Golf course, Schifferdecker Golf Course, Briarbrook Golf course, and Twin Hills Country Club. 

Players will be divided into teams based on playing ability and experience, and each team will practice together at a set time at one of the 4 courses. We will do our best to assign players to the practice location closest to their home address, but hope everyone understands it may not be perfect with so many sign ups to this league.
 
Practices will be held on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays depending on location and matches will be held on Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Tyler Markham, Carthage Golf Course and Austin Shipman, Schifferdecker Golf Course will be facilitating practices and games. Assistant Coaches are Trey McCrae and Taylor Lansford from Twin Hills Country Club.

SUMMER - Falcon Ridge 13U Program

Join us for a 7-week series getting us into spring golf and get the season started right. For the first 6 weeks we will spend an hour and half per class working through the fundamentals. We will spend a week on putting, chipping, pitching, full swing with irons, full swing with Drivers, and bunker and uneven lies. During each weeks topic we will look at the fundamentals of set up and the motion of each shot. While learning the fundamentals of these shots we will talk through drills, games, and other good practice habits to use outside of the class time. We will also spend some time on course talking about course management, Rules and etiquette, and make everyone feel comfortable being on the course with friends and family. For the 7th week of the series we will spend 2 hours on the course playing golf taking all the skills that were learned to the course.
