The Bent Creek Golf Club junior program is dedicated to bringing the highest quality golf instruction and life values ensuring a well rounded golf background. Further, the mission is to support, nurture and inspire each junior to embrace the values of good sportsmanship and respect for others. We will use golf as a tool to help kids realize the value of confidence and determination in golf and in life. It is our goal to make sure that we can help develop your child or children into one of the best that Bent Creek has to offer. Our Professionals take great pride in the Bent Creek Junior Golf Program and we are looking forward to a great 2025 season with our juniors!
Junior Programs
Junior golfers represent the future of this great game. At Bent Creek we are proud to offer excellent learning and playing opportunities to our young golfers. This year, our Junior Golf Program will be geared towards the theme of "Camp Week". We will have week long camps in June, July, and August. The camps will cover a wide variety of golf fundamentals learned on and off the golf course. The targeted age group for these camps are ages 7-16 years old. For those of you with younger children ages 4-6, we will also be offering a 4-session "Little Chippers" program on Thursday evenings designed to introduce young children to the game in a fun and safe environment. Our junior programs are also open to non-members, so if you or someone you know has a junior that would like to sign up, please fill out and return one of the registration forms (below on this page), or call the golf shop at 952-937-9347, or lastly email mark.kodet@pga.com.
