Junior Golf

Blackwood Golf Club offers a thriving Junior programme where there are opportunities for Junior members to participate in club events, Junior Pennants and also play in the MyGolf Junior League competition. Junior Pennants and MyGolf Junior League give the opportunity to play golf on other courses in a team environment.

Junior golf at Blackwood is designed for maximum participation and enjoyment.

Junior Membership

Becoming a Junior Member gives you access to daily competitions, annual junior golf events and access to the course 7 days a week for those who have gained a handicap.

Blackwood is also affiliated with the Australian Golf Foundation and has offered a Junior Girls Scholarship programme over a number of years. This has enabled girls to attain a handicap to the point that they can enter Blackwood Golf Club Junior events. More detail about this programme can be found here. 

Blackwood Golf Club has a Junior Sharp Cup team and a Junior Division 3 pennant team. The Sharp Cup competition is off the stick while the Division 3 competition is handicap match play. So this means anyone who has a handicap boys or girls can be part of the pennant squad group.

MyGolf Junior Program

In addition to the Junior program, Blackwood Golf Club is an accredited MyGolf Centre. MyGolf is a great way to learn golf for children aged from 7 to 16 years of age.

One of the main aims of the program is to engender a lifelong love of golf. Some Juniors may go on to play golf seriously at an elite level; others may play socially or casually. As well as developing physical skills, the regular clinics and holiday sessions cover etiquette and techniques of the game, so that Juniors are well prepared to be able to participate in games and competitions when they are ready to do so. As part of the programme, participants are able to  play on the course to practice what they have learnt.

Golf Australia runs a MyGolf Junior League competition where MyGolf participants can take part in a Junior Ambrose team event and play at other golf courses.
