The Boys Golf Club (BGC) is a developmental golf program open to boys ages 5-14. The BGC is designed to encourage participants to have fun, learn basic fundamentals of the game and provide an opportunity to advance and grow by playing from appropriate yardages for each skill level. Participants in the BGC are encouraged to have a caddie to help them enjoy their time. Allowing a caddie is a special component of the BGC to encourage family interaction. Seventeen events are scheduled during the year and participants can also participate in clinics that include golf etiquette, golf fundamentals, rules and tournament preparation in a non-threatening environment......
The BGC consists of five different participation levels. These levels are unique in that members in each level play a specific number of holes from appropriate yardages. Although the BGC is primarily a program to help kids have fun and learn, each event will have a competition portion for which prizes will be awarded.
The five participation levels are:
Gecko - 3 holes from a maximum yardage of 150 yards from the green
Roadrunner - 6 holes from a maximum yardage of 250 yards from the green
Scorpion - 9 holes from a maximum yardage of 350 yards from the green
Rattler - 9 holes from the forward tee markers at 2400-2600 total yards (must be at least 7 years old- NO CADDIES
Coyote - 18 holes from the forward or middle tee markers at 5400- 5800 total yards (must be at least 9 years old)- NO CADDIES
NOTE: Yardage may vary on shorter courses
