Synopsis: The Junior Elite program is a program designed to take juniors from our camps and clinics and put them into a more competitive atmosphere. This program runs for 10 weeks in which players have supervised practice and instruction 2-3 times a week. On Mondays they play as a team in a travel league competing against teams from other courses.
