Junior Program
Mona Vale Golf Club understands that the future of our club relies on our ability to attract and develop juniors. We place great importance on our Junior Development Program and have employed former touring professional Josh Lane as Junior Development Officer. The objectives of Josh's role are to introduce juniors to Mona Vale Golf Club and provide a player pathway that starts at the beginner level and continues through to the elite level. It's hoped that these future junior members will go on to be long term members and representatives of the club.
Mona Vale Golf Club has been around for more than 80 years and in that time has seen many past and present junior members go on to represent the Club, State and Country while some have even gone on to play professionally.
We believe that golf is not only a fun game to play but also helps young people develop qualities that will stay with them throughout their life. Our Junior Development Program encourages qualities such as respect, honesty, integrity and friendship. It provides the opportunity for juniors, regardless of their ability, to learn, improve, enjoy and respect all that the game of golf and membership at Mona Vale Golf Club has to offer.
The ground floor of our Junior Development Program and an excellent way of introducing kids to golf, are our Beginner Clinics. These clinics are held every Tuesday (except school holidays) and are free. They run from 4 til 5pm (or 4:30-5:30pm in day-light savings time) and use fun games to increase participation while establishing the basic skills involved in swinging a golf club. They are held in a fun, safe and nurturing way with a focus on having a go.
As juniors develop, they are invited to become members and there, optimistically, begins their long and strong relationship with Mona Vale Golf Club. Once a junior joins the club they will have access to a number of benefits including the use of our Championship golf course and practice facilities.
As Junior Members advance and become elite players, they may become members of the Junior Elite Team (JET). JET members are the pennant players and club champions of the future and are given special benefits designed to encourage game improvement and tournament participation. JET members are also invited to attend JET clinics, free of charge, which focus on elite technical instruction as well as tournament preparation and mental strength training.
All the clinics held, as part of the Junior Development Program, are structured so that at each advancing level there are extra benefits available and the coaching within each level is more advanced as the junior's progress.
We believe that membership at Mona Vale Golf Club and our Junior Development Program provides interested juniors with the best chance of reaching their potential.
