The Vision 2020 professional staff will introduce your child to the game of golf through the form of active play.  The swing is learned in a holistic, one step manner as we begin each clinic with “The Completion Drill.”  Within clinics, or, minutes, your child will have developed the early forms of their own “Olympian” swing.

Our popular Junior Golf Camp (JCP) runs July4-8.  The morning training sessions focus on learning key swing fundamentals through games and active play.  We observe each camp participant’s Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) and demonstrate how these skills can be performed at advanced levels in an effort to promote proper form.

Our Junior Camp also provides the opportunity to play at least 9 holes of golf each camp day at Rideau View Golf and Country Club.  Each participant will play with one of our professionals at least once during the week.

This intensive week is a great follow up to the Junior Clinics (JC) provided in May and June and serves as a wonderful measuring tool when deciding which Vision 2020 program is the next step for your athlete.

Dates:  July 4-8

The athlete will have a greater understanding of where golf fits in their life after participation in the Vision 2020 Core Program.  This in season group program meets 1.5 hours per week on Monday evenings from May to September and upon completion of the program it is hoped that all Fundamental Movement Skills have been acquired at an advanced level which provides the athlete with a base to learn Fundamental Sport Specific Skills (GOLF).  When both are acquired the athlete is Physically Literate, allowing them to move confidently and efficiently in a wide range of activities. It is important to note that is program is designed to develop a better athlete while  introducing the sport specific skills involved in golf.
