Results of the 1st shift of MillCreek Junior Golf Camp

The programme of the camp is quite intense! A team of golf professionals consisting of PGA Professional - Javier Toll; candidate master of sports and golf professional Konstantin Rukovishnikov, golf professionals Sofia Stefanovich, Mikhail Lavrinenko and a player of the Leningrad Region national team - Yakov Gontarev. Three pioneer counselors: Yulia, Margarita and Alexandra watched over the maintenance of order on the shift.

Golf professionals divided young golfers into two subgroups, and then into two more subgroups so that everyone had time to practice before lunch on the long game, remembered aspects of the short game and the final strokes - patta.

After lunch all the knowledge gained was practised on the golf course as theory without practice does not give the desired results.

What about the camp and without activities? Obligatory fishing around the third hole and acquaintance with water sports from KingWinch.

Pioneer counselors and coaches had time to play board games with the kids after dinner and ride bikes on a long route (about 5 km) around the golf courses and, of course, no one passed by the mirror-clear, heated pool at MillCreek.

The finale of the week was an 18-hole golf tournament for the senior group in a gross non-handicap format and for the middle group in a Stableford format. The younger group was able to assess their strengths on the par-3 course next to the clubhouse where the practice holes are located.
