Juniors & Cadets

Catalina Club has one of the best Junior & Cadet programs on the far south coast and was the winner of Junior Club of the Year 2024. Led by Director of Golf and PGA Club Professional of the Year, Rodney Booth, the program takes in cadets from the age of 8 to train them to a level to join the Under 18s junior team. On the team we have rising stars of Australia golf playing at state, national and international level who inspire and guide the up and coming talents on the Catalina team.

LESSONS

Catalina Club offers a wide range of offerings for children to get into the game. Our Cadet program runs on a Wednesday afternoon and suits the beginner golfer from ages 8 and up. As each Cadet progresses through the program they will eventually move into our Junior Program. In our Cadet program, participants are shown through every facet of the game under expert qualified guidance. They will develop their skills in a fun, friendly and enjoyable environment.

Our Junior program see the Cadets progress into the next level of golf, obtaining a handicap and playing in Member Competitions should they wish to. The Junior program is supported by various levels of tuition by our Club Professional with the entire Junior team coming together on a Thursday afternoon for a group practice session.
