Torrey Pines Junior Golf Program – Important News and Updates to Your Program

Gather Around1
Weekend Clinics are Moving Back to the Main Practice Center Saturday November 22nd

Because of renovation work at our main practice center (South range), over the last few weeks we’ve been holding our Saturday and Sunday skills clinics at the instruction center (North range). Starting this Saturday, November 22nd, we’re moving back! Please have your kids check-in with our coaches at our old spot located on the lower level of the South range for both Saturday and Sunday skill clinics.

Scoring Lessons Kicked Off

Congratulations to Daniel Hoppen and Stephen Jin for their ground breaking outing with coach Chris Lempa. See the results of their scoring lesson along with beautiful views of the golf course following this posting. If you would like to challenge Daniel’s and Stephen’s current scores and win prizes from the golf shop and free entries into group and private lessons, contact your coach to schedule a scoring lesson. Alternatively, send me a message or call the number listed below and I’ll help you link up with an instructor.

Expanded Opportunities to Play with an Instructor for Beginners

Scoring lessons are designed to help our more advanced members who want to test their golf skills under the rules of golf and in competition with their peers. These lessons won’t be a good fit for younger or beginning members who are still developing their golf skills and can’t reasonably play Torrey Pines from the forward tee boxes due to the length of the golf holes.

Still, junior members who aren’t ready to compete and play under the strict rules of golf may want to have a golf coach teach them the fundamentals of playing the game while on the course. Normally, this experience is available during the group playing lessons held on Monday and Wednesday afternoons. But if those days and times aren’t a good fit for a members schedule, we want you to know you can schedule private and semi-private lessons with your coaches on Tuesdays and Thursdays using your pre-paid lesson card. If you would like to arrange a playing lesson on Tuesday and Thursday, please contact your coach directly or send me a message and I’ll help make your arrangements.
