Junior Development
A key component of every junior membership at Glenelg
We are very proud of our investment in junior golf. Glenelg Golf Club places great importance on junior golf and this is reflected in the Club’s junior membership structures and the development programs associated with them, which provide a pathway to help juniors to achieve their golfing goals.
Our elite team of nationally recognised and accredited coaching professionals coordinate programs in conjunction with the Club’s Junior Golf sub-committee. All Pro Shop staff are available to junior Members for coaching and advice.
The development of good golfers is a key aim of the program, however there is also a very strong belief that golf should be a fun and enjoyable pastime. The programs in place encourage all juniors, regardless of their ability, to learn, enjoy and respect all that golf club membership has to offer at Glenelg, in a safe, supervised and healthy environment.
Glenelg Golf Club Foundation
Established in 2002, the Glenelg Golf Club Foundation funds key projects through donations from Members and supporters. Its main focus is the Junior Golf and Elite Player Development Programs, covering coaching, clinics, competition fees and trips. So far, the Foundation has raised over $290,000, with more than $140,000 invested directly into junior development. Since its start, over 170 junior Members have benefited, many remaining with the Club. This support has helped Glenelg earn a reputation as a leader in junior golf.
Junior Tiger Clinics
The Junior Tigers Golf Program provides a pathway for young golfers from Beginner to Junior membership through clinics and time oncourse. The structured six-level program applies the motto “A Motor Skill, A Rule & An Etiquette” and each session completed will involve these three areas.
Junior clinics run during school terms and in school holidays, and you don’t have to be a junior Member to take part.
Visit mygolf.com.au for upcoming clinics, or contact the coaching team on (08) 8350 3250 or coaching@glenelggolf.com

Membership at Glenelg is a lifestyle investment. Junior Members discover the game’s traditions and etiquette at a private club while enjoying modern facilities, all in a welcoming, relaxed and safe environment. Our programs prepare junior golfers to play with confidence now and into the future.

Throughout the year, members also play for historic Club trophies, becoming part of Glenelg’s proud tradition and enjoying a welcoming golfing community.
