JUNIOR
MEMBERSHIP
Presently no nomination fee is
payable for a junior to join Keperra Country Golf
Club. The membership fee is currently $188
per annum from September 2009 with pro rata
adjustments after that date.
John Sendon - the
touring PGA Golf Professional - conducted a
clinic exclusively for the junior members
of Keperra Country Golf Club on
Sunday 3rd January
2010.
This was
a great opportunity for junior members of the club
to get up close and personal with John, the club's
international superstar and ambassador who makes
time to conduct these clinics in between his busy
international golfing committments which include
stalking "the tiger" weekly on the PGA tour in
America.

Keperra Country
Golf Club is proud to work with head and AAA rated
teaching Professional Chris Chaplin to provide a
strong junior program. The ethos of the program
revolves around Participation, Progression and
Passion and clinics are structured in this
way.
The beginner clinics works on
encouraging participation
in the sport by ensuring all activities remain
practical and fun. These clinics are the perfect
introduction to the sport and suits those with
very little or no experience at all.
From here juniors are given the
opportunity to develop their skills in a safe fun
environment and when ready progress to the
intermediate and more advanced clinics where
juniors will experience a mixture of clinics and
on-course play.
Once participants are ready to gain
an official handicap the program runs a weekly
competition. It is during these competitions
junior golfers develop the passion
for the game by competing against fellow
juniors and also their own handicap.
For those who are striving to the
elite level, the program supports juniors by
assisting with tournament entries, travel, elite
level coaching and the formation of representative
squads.
