Why is Golf Great for Kids?

Learning to play golf instills many valuable skills and lessons that reach far beyond the course. Young people can develop life-long benefits from golf lessons, ranging from physical skills like eye-hand coordination to social skills like etiquette and problem-solving.

Unlike many other sports, golf is a quiet game that rewards patience, self-control and a rich culture of etiquette. The self-confidence gained through mastering golf can be applied toward a child’s future education and career. It can be played in diverse groups of mixed ages, genders, skill levels and levels of physical fitness. Because a golfer’s primary opponent is his or herself, golf rewards goal-setting and constant self-improvement. It can also be enjoyed by the whole family at the same time.

Golf is also less physically strenuous than many other sports. If you are worried about the risk of injury that a child may face when playing contact-based team sports, golf provides a great opportunity to learn sportsmanship and physical skills in a lower-risk environment.

Quality Golf Lessons for Kids in Buckhead, GA

Golf also provides a wonderful opportunity to go outside, spend quality time with friends and family, and become more physically active. Children of any age and gender can begin learning the fundamentals of golf, and the lessons offered at Aussie Kids can scale up to match the experience level and physical capabilities of any child.

We teach many fundamental golf skills:
– The basics of the game’s rules and course etiquette
– Golf safety and appropriate course behavior, including golf cart safety
– Score-keeping and goal-setting
– Proper grip, setup, and swing technique
– Posture and technique skills to improve distance and accuracy
– Advice and guidance on different clubs and what to look for when buying clubs of your own

In addition to standard golfing practice, we also teach lessons through a variety of fun games designed to boost a child’s proficiency at a particular skill. These games are non-competitive and meant to help improve accuracy, posture, and technique while also providing greater familiarity with golf equipment and the course environment. We can help fit your child with equipment that will be appropriate for the child’s age, size and strength to maximize effectiveness and minimize frustration.

We offer both private and group lessons for kids of all ages. Learn more about after school programs at the  Buckhead location.

Everyone is welcome from beginners to more advanced older students.
