Honeywell Junior Golf
The Honeywell Junior Golf Program is designed to teach Juniors golf skills and golf etiquette. The program is open to all ages from young as 5 to as old as 17. The 2023 Junior Golf Program will have 4 different camps and times for you to choose from. Each camp is lead by our Director of Golf Kyle Matson. Kyle is a PGA member with nearly 20 years of experience working with juniors of all ages.
Jr Camp # 1 and # 2 are designed for kids age 5-12 who are just getting started in the game. No experience is necessary. We will go over some basic fundamentals and golf etiquette to better prepare them as they learn this awesome game.
Advanced Jr Camp # 1 and # 2 are designed for the more seasoned Junior. Previous golf experience is required. Meaning, if they have been through a camp or two in the past and have begun to practice and play on with family and friends. The camp will run more like a golf practice with a focus on drills and learning more complex techniques. This a great camp for middle school or high school golfers.
We realize you may have a Jr that is under the age of 10 that has a lot of experience and would benefit more from the Advanced Camp. On the flipside you may also have a Jr that is over the age of 12 that has never touched a club. We do not want them to miss out on camp. Please call us and let us know the situation and we will do everything we can get them in the camp that will benefit them the most.

This League is open Juniors age 9-13 and requires some basic knowledge to compete. If you would like more information on signing your Junior up for PGA Jr League please contact Kyle by email kmatson@honeywellgc.com.
Junior Golf Equipment
It is recommended that each Junior have their own clubs, but it is not necessary. If you are looking to purchase clubs for your child we carry the US Kids Brand of Clubs for Juniors, if we don’t have their size in stock we can order them. We encourage kids to use their own clubs because this promotes more beneficial practice for them. These clubs should be very lightweight, with very flexible shafts which will encourage proper technique.
Little City Junior Tour
Started in 2000, the Little City Junior Tour is designed for Junior High and High School players. It is a series of tournaments all within a 30 minute drive of Wabash. The cost is minimal for each event and the entry fee includes lunch, beverages, and awards. At each tournament there is a brief instructional session about the rules of golf. We are also using these tournaments to help train these golfers for high school competition. It is open to both boys and girls. Junior High players play 9 holes and High School players play 18 holes. This is an outstanding program and we highly encourage all Juniors to compete.
