Each golf term runs for the length of the school term; up to 11 weeks. Term commitment is required. Pro rata is available if joining mid-term.
Dunsborough Lakes Golf Club runs a Juniors Program for school students in Year 4 and above.
Sessions run during the school term, head to club website for current term sessions. Matt Criss, the Club’s resident PGA professional, will run the sessions with the assistance of several Club members. This allows for small group instruction.
With an over-riding goal of ‘having fun’, we usually maintain small group instruction with many sessions out on the fairways. Students are required to wear appropriate shoes (i.e. Gym shoes/sneakers) and all other equipment is supplied.
