DCC Junior Golf

DCC Junior Golf Program

Our Junior Golf Program is designed to get children of all ages and skill levels into golf, providing a game they can play throughout their lives.  With an emphasis on sportsmanship and safety, junior golfers will also be instructed on the fundamentals of the game as well as proper etiquette.  Our main objective is to get kids excited about playing golf with their family and friends!

The Program

The DCC Junior Golf Program is a six-week program with each week focusing on a specific skill. This year the program meets mostly on Wednesdays with special events hosted over the weekend. Lessons are first with play following. See the schedule for each week and call the Golf Shop with any questions at 217-442-6027.

We encourage parental support! Have an adult walk with your child after their lesson for a couple holes.

Visit us on Sunday, May 17th from 11:00AM until 1:00PM for the Junior Sports Registration Day in the Clubhouse Library to sign up for the Junior Golf Program and other summer programs!
