Junior Programs

Play the Fun Way!

*Junior Programs open for registration February 1, 2026.*

Starting at 4 years old, Fossil Trace Golf School has a path for every golfer. As our juniors makes their way through each program, they’ll develop more in-depth with golf fundamentals and on-course experience.

Many juniors repeat programs, progress to more advanced ones, or take multiple programs simultaneously. Fossil Trace Golf School is careful to ensure all program schedules do not conflict. If your junior is seeking more individual attention, consider private lessons.
