Golf Summer Camps Golf & So Much More!

For kids who want to try golf but don't want to spend all day at it, this great combo camp will keep them happy and active all day! With the help of a Montgomery County Golf Academy instructor, all campers will practice putting, chipping, driving, and using irons and woods at the Driving Range (M-Th, 9am-noon). On Friday, everyone will play nine holes of golf at a nearby course; then full-day campers will head back for a final fun group activity. Afternoons for full-day campers will be filled with “so much more”: tennis, basketball, kick ball, mini-golf and water fun at South Germantown Splash Playground. Don't want “so much more”? Sign up for a half-day camp and concentrate on golf!

Fee covers instruction, tees, Nike Golf® balls, and transportation Friday. Full-day campers will also receive a Nike Golf® hat and Papa John's Pizza for lunch on Friday.

We'll provide clubs for kids who don't have them. Please bring a non-perishable lunch and snack, water bottle, sunscreen, and swimsuit (for full-day campers).

Golf & So Much More: FULL-DAY

Beginner/Intermediate Golf Camp

This half-day camp is just the ticket for kids 6-14 years old who have expressed interest in and/or shown a talent for golf, but aren’t quite ready to play a full round. With the help of a Montgomery County Golf Academy instructor, campers will practice putting, chipping, driving and using irons and woods Monday-Thursday at the Driving Range. On Friday, they’ll compete in small tournament at a nearby golf course. It’ll be a blast for juniors, and a great way to develop the skills needed to start playing golf with the family.

Spring Break in Montgomery Parks

Registration opens JANUARY 9/10 for all of these great Spring Break activities!

Spring Break Golf Camp

Tennis “Boot Days”

What a fun way to spend Spring Break!

Monday through Thursday at the Driving Range, campers will learn how to putt, chip, pitch, drive and use irons and woods with the help of a Montgomery County Golf Academy instructor. On Friday, we'll play a 9-hole tournament at Needwood Golf Course (Friday's hours 8:30am-1pm).

Fee includes instruction, tees, Nike Golf® balls, and transportation on Friday.

School's out today, so why not let your young tennis pros take the day to learn and improve their tennis skills? We'll use games, personal instruction and drills to teach beginning/intermediate level players all the basics: forehand, backhand and overhead strokes, serves and volleys, footwork, scorekeeping, names and meanings of the lines, and more. It's great fun, and great exercise, too!
