Anguilla’s first ever Junior Golf Camp was successfully completed last week. Over a two-week period 15 children in attendance were taught a range of the fundamentals such as putting, chipping and driving the ball with a full swing.

Competitions were held daily with prizes of golf clubs and golf balls being awarded to individual winners. As well as being taught how to play golf, the children were briefed on the rules of the game and golf etiquette.

Some of the highlights for the children included visiting and playing at the new golf course due to open shortly. Many thanks must go to St. Regis Temenos Golf Club and Troon Golf for their generous sponsorship and hard work throughout the camp. The participants also enjoyed two 18 Hole tournaments at The Play -A-Round Mini Golf Course.

Instructors from Temenos Golf Club and the Anguilla Golf Association expressed their delight in seeing children from Anguilla learning and participating in a sport that is new to the island. When the Temenos Golf Course opens in November, we will begin advertising additional clinics to further educate the youth about the game of golf.
