Aberdovey Junior Section
Over the last 4 years, Aberdovey has grown its junior section to become one of the strongest in Wales.
Each week Juniors can take advantage of weekly coaching with our PGA Professional and follow a structured coaching programme designed for all abilities of golf.
In recent years, the Aberdovey Junior team reached the national finals in the team event, and were winners of the Eryri Shield. The Wales Golf academy coaching squad consisted of 4 Aberdovey junior members, some of whom have gone on to represent Wales across Europe.
Aberdovey Golf Club has a strong working relationship with Wales Golf in delivering coaching to children. A schools coaching programme is delivered each year to the local primary and secondary schools in the county with over 300 pupils receiving coaching/playing the game through the summer months. This forms the basis of bringing new golfers to our club.
Aberdovey Golf Club - Juniors have a Facebook group - it is a closed group which any junior (or parent!) can request to join.
