Junior Golf Lessons

PGA HOPE Oakdale - Session 1

This is a fun, team oriented way for your child to learn to play golf, course etiquette, life lessons, in a team format. We will have weekly practices (1 hour in duration). Along with the practices, we will have 6 matches against other clubs that are in our league (Edina CC, Minneapolis GC, Golden Valley CC). This is designed to be a fun way to learn the game no matter what your juniors skill level is. The goal of this program is to introduce the juniors to playing the game on the course, improve their skill, teach them about course etiquette, and how to work together as a team.

Midland Hills PGA Jr. League

Family Golf Event / Series

The Rochester Area PGA Junior League is primarily focused on boys and girls ages 10-13.  We are open to accepting kids that are a bit younger if they have experience in the game of golf and are comfortable on the golf course.  Although, we do include some instruction with this league, our PGA Junior Leaguers should have a golf foundation.  The other teams in this league are specific to a corresponding golf course.  This team is open to all youngsters in the area that may not be a member of the other participating courses.  We are hoping for enough participation to create two teams for the Greater Rochester Area. 
 This league will run for the months of June and July and we will be competing with the other SE MN area golf courses (Austin CC, RGCC, Somerby & Willow Creek GC).  The matches will take place on Sunday afternoons.

Rochester Area - 13u

Teams can be comprised of 2-6 players, including at least one adult and one junior.
