Summer Camps
Quick Links
Camp Overview
Our summer camps are designed to be fun and knowledgeable experiences for junior golfers of varying ages. Participants learn about the FUNdamentals of putting, chipping, and the full swing in an interactive group environment. Portions of the camps will allow participants to explore and learn through our unique leaderboard challenges and small competitions. We recommend that participants have 0-3 years of experience with golf.
Accomplished & Competitive Junior Golfers
If your junior golfer is an experienced player, meaning the junior gets out on the course quite often, plays in tournaments, or has a current swing coach, then the Kevics Junior Academy (KJA) or private coaching are the recommended options. For more information about those options, please submit a consultation request by clicking here.

Camp FAQ's
Q: When is the registration deadline?
Q: Do I need golf clubs?
A: Yes. Due to COVID our equipment policy has been updated. We require each camper to have his/her own golf clubs for the entirety of the camp. We will not provide loaner or rental clubs. We will not allow the kids to share equipment, unless they are siblings.
We only recommend the U.S. Kids Golf brand. As their sets are fitted to the height of the play, not by age. We highly suggest that you DO NOT purchase kids clubs that are based on an age range, as this can hamper the development of the player because the clubs will potentially be too long, too short, or too heavy.
For our camps, we recommend having at least three clubs: a wedge, a putter, and a driver (or wood/hybrid).
OPTIONS FOR PURCHASING US KID CLUBS
*A fitting is required to know which size is needed. We can measure the player at our facility or a big box store should be able to fit the player as well.
- Purchase through us, at least 14-days in advance as shipping takes about 7-10 days for the clubs to arrive. We only recommend this option if you're wanting custom embroidery on the junior's golf bag. We'll set up a fitting time, do a quick measurement then present the options.
- Big Box Stores: PGA Tour Superstore, Golf Galaxy, Academy, or Dick's
- Market Places/Thrift Shops/Online: eBay, Facebook (junior golf groups & Marketplace), and Mercari
Q: How do I register multiple siblings in the exact same camp?
A: MULTIPLE SIBLINGS: The system will allow you to create an account (the Parent Account), under which you can add Child Accounts. If you have multiple siblings to register, use the dropdown box on the registration screen to create child accounts. You'll then need to book them individually by selecting their name from the parent account after clicking on the Book Now button.
Q: Is there a minimum number of campers required for camp to be activated?
A: YES. A minimum of 4 campers is our magic number to activate a camp by the registration deadline. If this number is not met by the registration deadline, we will let registrants know and help them find a different camp. To help the camps get activated, please share the camp information with family, friends, neighbors, PTAs, churches, schools... everyone!
Q: How can I help fill your camps?
A: GREAT QUESTION! Filling camps with friends and family will help create a great vibe and fun long-lasting memories. Here are some ways to help spread the word about our camps.
- Share this webpage on social media, like Facebook groups and your personal Instagram account for other parents to see
- Share this page via email and text message
- Call someone, the old school method
- Tell your kid's PTA, Principal, Teacher, School District Board Members, Bus Driver, and even the Mailman. Anyone you reach gets us one step closer to activating camps!
Q: What is the student to coach ratio for summer camps?
A: We have an 8:1 maximum ratio. Usually it's 6:1 or less.
Q: Why are your camps usually only 3-days long?
A: Over the past 15+ years we've tried several different camp formats and lengths of time. We've learned that 3-Day camps are the perfect fit for providing a foundational layer of knowledge that can be retained while also having fun. We truly want the kids to have a great experience and be able to retain the information we provide at camp.
Q: What forms do I need?
A: After you've registered for a camp, you'll be required to complete the Emergency Contact Form (by clicking here). This form is required before the first day of camp. If we do not receive this form, the camper will not be allowed to participant.
Q: What happens at Junior Golf Camp?
A: We're glad you asked! First and foremost we strive to have fun by introducing the campers to golf with game-based training and kid-friendly terms. We'll cover putting, chipping, and full swing. We also discuss core values like respect, honesty, confidence, and responsibility. We help the campers with their hand-eye coordination, athleticism, and decision-making skills, all of which are fundamental components for any great golfer. We also strive for a safe environment. We have put in place very specific safety rules that each camper MUST follow or they will be removed from camp.
Q: What are the Coach's expectpectations of the campers?
A: While our campers maybe be young, respect and responsibility can be learned at any age at home. Campers are expected to be respectful of the coaches, the other campers, the facility, and any equipment that might be used during the camps. If any of the campers display signs of disrespect, they may be asked to leave the camp, without a refund.
Q: Do parents stay to watch the camp?
A: Parents typically drop off the kids and come back for pick-up. Parents can stay in the foyer or conference room at our facility, and peak through the window of the training area from time to time. However, we don't allow parental interaction during camps or junior classes. This is a time for the kids to explore and experience the sport, and most of all, it's a time for them to have fun. If there are any behavioral issues, we'll ask the parent(s) to stay the next day to observe the camper's behavior.
Q: What is the dress code?
A: Let's call it "kid casual". We recommend, a t-shirt, shorts, and gym shoes (or simply athletic/active wear). Open-toed shoes are strictly prohibited. Please no: sandals, crocs, flip flops, boots, heels.
Q: How should I Prepare?
- You'll receive a camp checklist before your camp date with details about how to prepare.
- Be sure to get clubs before the start of camp. U.S. Kids Golf is the recommended option.
- Arrive about 5 minutes before the start of camp. We promptly start on time each day.
- Use the restroom before you leave the house or when you arrive at the facility before the start of camp.
Q: What should I bring?
A: These are the recommend items to bring to camp:
- Water bottle (labeled with your name)
- Golf clubs (labeled with your name or initials if possible).
- Medical needs: special medicines, inhalers, epipen, etc...
- A snack if you didn't eat breakfast.
Q: Is my child a good fit for a group/team environment?
A: While we wish that every camper will fit into our programs, sometimes a group environment isn't the best fit. After the camp, we will be able to recommend future golf options for your camper, whether that be our junior academy or private lessons.
Q: Are there refunds for camp?
A: Full Refunds are given to the card on file if:
- Kevics Golf Academy needs to cancel the camp.
- you cancel more than 24 hours before the start of camp.
- you late cancel, meaning you canceled within the 24 hours prior to the start of camp.
- for no call no shows.
- for missed days.
- when the camper is asked to leave camp due to violating the safety policies.
- when the camper is asked to leave camp due to lack of respect, behavior, and/or an attitude that is inconsistent with our junior academy's expectations.
