Encouraging young people to play golf is an investment in their physical and character development, laying the foundation for a well-rounded, healthy, active and resilient future.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Our Junior Development Officer, Will Ubrihien,<\/strong> <\/em>has created a Player Pathway that helps juniors learn new skills and develop as players, at their own pace. The pathway starts at the beginner level and helps players progress all the way through to the elite level.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Mona Vale Golf Club\u2019s Player Pathway is divided into three main stages; Rookies, Players and JET (Junior Elite Team).<\/p>\n<h1><strong><span class=\"the-seasons-font\"><span style=\"color: #0b3950;\">ROOKIES<\/span>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #afc4ce;\">(THURSDAY)<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>New golfers learn best when engaged in a program that is clear, fun, easy to learn and build new friendships with other kids.

Young players\u00a0haven\u2019t physically developed enough to attempt to hit the ball\u00a0250 metres off the tee but we believe that golf is best learned from the green backwards\u00a0anyway, not from the tee forwards.<\/p>\n<p>The Players Clinic is a games based learning environment where each participant will understand how to perform better under pressure with a mixture of games whether it be on the practice fairway, chipping green, or putting green.
