Coaching

Included in the Junior membership is a coaching fee which entitles each junior member to participate in an extensive coaching programme that is provided by our club professional Bernard Fitzgerald.

Coaching sessions take place on the practice areas in the club in a safe environment and usually operate between February and November each year. These sessions are varied and the emphasis is on making the game accessible and enjoyable. A special academy programme is provided to introduce academy members to the game of golf. Email notices are sent in advance of coaching programmes and players are encouraged to participate and become actively involved.

During the summer months junior club competitions take place on Thursday and Sunday afternoons. Competitions take place during Christmas, Easter, and mid-term breaks.

The Junior members represent the club in Inter Club Competitions such as The Ward League and Fred Daly Cup. We have been very successful in these competitions, having won The Ward League three years in succession and reaching the quarter finals of The Fred Daly competition.

Westmanstown Golf Club has a comprehensive range of junior policies in place for juniors. These are available on our website and we encourage parents and guardians to review these policies. Click here to view.
