Kinder Golf Program

SNAG junior Academy Logo

Leongatha Golf Club is continuing our brand new SNAG Kinder Golf program for Term 1 2018, at the Inverloch Hub.

SNAG (Starting New At Golf) is a program that uses modified equipment designed specifically to provide children with the ability to make an easy entry into the sport. Bright colourful targets, balls and equipment are designed to provide children maximum enjoyment and success where ‘Launchers’ and ‘Rollers’ replace boring drivers, irons & putters.

SNAG golf clubs are very light weight with oversized club heads.  This makes it very easy for young kids to swing with enough speed to hit the ball up in the air.  The balls are soft undersized tennis balls that stick to the Velcro targets.  The larger balls and club heads combine to make hitting the ball consistently much easier.

Term 1  2018 Program Details

Tuesday afternoons 2:30 pm – 3:00 pm Inverloch Hub

30th January – 20th March (8 sessions total)

$40 for the 8 sessions payable on or before the first session.

All equipment provided.
