Junior Golf

THE GOLF COURSE AT BIRCH CREEK IS A LEADER IN JUNIOR GOLF!

The Golf Course at Birch Creek is the heart of junior golf in Eastern Oregon. All junior golfers will receive unlimited range privileges and golfing privileges for free at the Golf Course at Birch Creek. That’s right, no charge whatsoever. In return, we ask that juniors work on their games and become the most skilled golfers they can be, while having a lot of fun, of course.  Golfers ages 13 and under may play the course unaccompanied, but must first pass our junior golf quiz to do so.  After passing the quiz, unaccompanied golfers may play anytime weekdays and after 11am on weekends.  Proper golf etiquette and maturity is expected from our juniors at all times.

Benefits of Golf for Youth Development

Exercise:  Walking 9 Holes of golf amounts to nearly 3 miles!

Sportsmanship: Players must know and abide by the rules of golf and be able to conduct themselves in a kind and respectful manner towards others even in a competitive game.

Social Interaction: Golf builds healthy relationships by bringing juniors together in a friendly, competitive environment. A round of golf will encourage kids to socialize for more than two hours without the use of any electronic devices.

Responsibility: Players are responsible for their actions on the golf course. It is up to them to keep score, repair divots, rake bunkers, repair ball marks on the green, and keep up with the pace of play.

These are just a few of the benefits from participating in one of our junior programs. Please contact us for more information about this or of our golf programs. To get you started, we would like to offer a one-time lesson at half off the regular rate. Lessons can be taken as a family, by siblings, or one-on-one. We will even provide you with clubs if you need them!
