Junior Golf Clinic
The Junior Golf Clinic, which is held on Fridays from 4:00pm – 6:00pm, was first started in 1994 by Jean de Meillac. At that time the clinic attracted all the playing juniors which were no more than 12 playing juniors. Over the years the programme has been modified and streamlined, so that today the junior clinic is for beginners only.
The number of Juniors permitted to join this clinic is limited to the number of our golf professionals available to give lessons.
Experience has shown that to effectively teach Junior golfers, no more than seven golfers per professional should be permitted. One has to be a member of St. Andrew’s Golf Club to join the Junior Clinic. The minimum age for joining St. Andrew’s is 7 years of age. The current fees for Juniors 8-18 years are $1,180.00 in a calendar year.
It is not compulsory to join the junior clinic, though advisable to do so. Any person who joins St. Andrew’s is given six (6) free golf lessons with a professional of their choice. Any new golfers should take advantage of this offer as it gives them an opportunity to get individual lessons and familiarize with the professional. It is also advisable that apart from being in the junior clinic, juniors should practice at least three (3) times per week if they are to get the maximum benefits from the programme and improve their golf.
Graduates from the Junior Golf Clinic include Tracey Clarke, Robert Llanos, Martine de Gannes (2008 Sportswoman of the Year Representative for Golf) and Ben Martin (winner of T&T Open 2008).
