2010 Junior Golf at Val Halla

Val Halla is known around the State for the strength of its Junior Golf Programs.  What better way to learn a lifelong sport than participating in one of the programs below at a very early age.  The mission of our programs is simple...we promote golf by teaching juniors the fundamentals of the game...from etiquette to putting; from driving to short irons; from rules to chipping...exposure to all aspects of golf is what this is all about.  Friendly competition is also a part of the game at certain levels.  These programs are meant to be fun while learning all aspects of golf...simply look at their smiles!

In 2010, Val Halla is proud to host a MSGA Junior Weekly Event (7/1/10); the NEPGA Pro-Junior (7/7/10); and the MSGA Junior Championship (8/3-8/5/10).

Please email Brian Bickford at bbickford@cumberlandmaine.com or call 829-2225 x2 if you have any questions.
