Girls Junior Golf Camp Checklist To Make Everyone Happy

Girls junior golf has grow in popularity in leaps and bounds in just the last five years. Whether this was started by the Tiger Woods phenomena, Annika Sorenstam or Michelle Wie, is not really important. What is important is that more young ladies are playing girls junior golf than ever before!

With the growth in girls junior golf, many summer golf camps have become popular to attend. These schools range from 3-Day schools to 5-Day schools in length and cover all aspects of the game. So if your daughters are anything like mine, they are more worried about what they will need to pack in order to stay beautified while they are gone. While this is important, here is a checklist of items that you will want to make sure that your child has before they leave for summer golf camp. 

1. You want to pack your golf clubs. This sounds obvious and sometimes that makes it the hardest to remember. If your child is looking to get a new set of golf clubs in the near future, you will want one of the golf instructors that she works with to give you recommendations for her next set as well as the specs or measurements that she will need.

2. Packing the needed medications for the time your daughter will be gone is important. Try to think ahead as well. For instance, traveling to another area of the country may kick in some allergy or sinus problem that she was not currently having at home. With this over the counter medicine not taking up much room it is much better to be safe than sorry. 

3. You never know what kind of weather you’re going to encounter during your girls junior golf camp, so make sure you take the right kind of gear for rain, like a rain jacket, umbrella, or visor. In addition, stay with solid colors so she can mix and match while she is gone.

4. Make sure you have comfortable shoes and socks with you.  While at the girls junior golf camp, they will be hitting more balls and playing more holes than they are probably used to doing at home. Having fresh socks to put on at lunch may give their feet the breather that they need.

5. Again, practicing and playing more than usual, your daughter will need to pack plenty of golf balls, gloves, tees, etc. How many will depend on her current skill level and the itinerary for the school.

6. You may not have to deal with many bugs where you live but you never know what can happen at junior golf camp. Packing a bottle of insect repellant in her golf bag could benefit her year-round.

7. The more and more we learn about what the sun is doing to all of us, the more important that it is to pack plenty of sun screen. We are learning that this can be very crucial to your health. At our camps, we encourage our students to use it multiple times a day as the instructors do as well.

Use this checklist and add to it as needed to make sure your junior golfer is prepared to attend girls junior golf camp. The preparation prior to leaving will result in her having what she needs while she is at girls junior golf camp. This will help insure that her experience is a positive one for her as well as the rest of the family!
