The RIWGA Junior Golf Program is for girls ages 11-18 and have not yet attended college. This program is proud to teach girls the game of golf while incorporating a fun and educational atmosphere. Teaching professionals volunteer their time to work with Juniors during six clinics held at Button Hole & Fire Fly Golf Courses. Once this program is completed, Juniors may qualify to play at private and semi-private courses around the state of RI in a chaperoned environment. While some Juniors may be very talented golfers our program truly welcomes girls of any and all skill levels. We encourage and welcome any interested girls to inquire about this program, however applications are taken on a first-come first served basis.
If you inquiring about registering for this program and space availability please contact Ann Marie Gildea at amgildea@hotmail.com.
