Three Day Camps
I will be running three day camps for more experienced golfers from the ages of 9-16. They will run from 10:00am - 2:00pm on the stated dates:

The cost of the camps will be £179 for the three days which is an early bird offer until the 10th of July where the cost will be £199 after then. Sibling discount is available. Please note that there are only 24 spaces for these camps. (Please read much lower in the page for the one day camp dates)
One Day Camps
For the one day camps, again I have decided to take the same amount of children as above to improve the ratio of adults to children. The one day camps are aimed towards a mixed ability group but the same ages of 9-16.
The times for the one day camps are 9:00am - 12:00pm. The early bird offer until the 10th of July is £39 then it's £49 after that date. Here is a list of the dates:
Friday 25th of July
Friday 1st of Aug
Friday 8th of Aug
Friday 22nd Aug
Friday 29th of Aug
Monday the 1st of Sept
If you wish to book your child in, please message me directly and I'll confirm their place. I do have to let everyone know we are hopefully just about to exchange to move house - there may be a slight chance I may have to shift a couple of dates but it is unlikely.
