Junior Golf Program Curriculum

The Cottonwood Country Club Junior Golf program will incorporate a sequential and skills based approach to advancement. The goal will be to earn all Four Cottonwood Leaves by the end of summer. The curriculum will be challenging and the students who earn the Gold Leaf will be allowed on the course by themselves. These will be the role models for the future of the Club and Bradley wants everyone to know that he is committed to their healthy development by highlighting some very important values:

Honesty
Respect
Perseverance

Integrity
Confidence
Courtesy

Sportsmanship
Responsibility
Judgement

These ideas are applicable to every aspect of the life and Bradley has always made an effort to integrate them into his Junior development and instruction.

The reintegration of a ladder system and a team to participate in the PGA Junior Golf League will also be a goal for the upcoming season.
