Welcome to Tamborine Mountain’s Junior Golf Program

Our club always welcomes & encourages potential new junior member participants to join our Junior Program, and to play and enjoy our unique Golf Course.

Our Aims:

·         To provide our junior boys and girls with a safe, comfortable and enjoyable environment.

·         To provide a beginners program designed for basic learning and lots of fun.

·         To keep the costs affordable for families, and to encourage and maintain participation. 

·         To assist and develop our juniors with basic golfing skills with fundamentals type coaching and the basic etiquette of golf.

·         To promote and assist our more accomplished juniors to represent our club in District events such as the Gold Coast District Interclub Completions and Junior Open Golf Classic’s held at various courses throughout the Gold Coast & other neighbouring regions.

Over the past few years our program has produced and will continue to produce many fine young golfers, and through the discipline and etiquette which our sport provides has assisted many juniors grow into respectable adults.

We strive to cater for all ages within our Junior Golf program, so if your child would simply like to try the sport and does not have any equipment we will be more than happy to lend you some equipment to use (depending upon availability).

Our junior participants are not only local to Mt Tamborine but also coming from various surrounding locations (our club being 20 to 30 mins from Nerang, Gaven, Coomera, Canungra, etc.).

And for Mum’s & Dad’s living some distance from our club, you are always welcome to follow your son or daughter during their participation or you can simply enjoy all the sites and activities Mt Tamborine offers.
