JOM Tour Championship
Over 70 junior golfers from around New South Wales were treated with perfect conditions for the July School Holiday Tour Championship.
Lynwood Country Club played host and provided the participants with access to its tremendous facilities including its fully refurbished driving range and short game facilities in addition to the picturesque links style course.
The day provided the chance for regular Juniors on the Move participants to bring along a non-golfer whether it be a sibling or friend. This initiative was extremely successful with 13 children being introduced to the game of golf. They also got the chance to participate in their first golf event with a modified three hole competition being available.
All fitted out in their Fayde shirts and caps, the children participated in 2 hours’ worth of professional tuition that focused on three areas, chipping, putting and the long game. They learnt countless tips and tricks to improve their golf with many commenting on how they learnt that less lofted clubs such as a 7 iron can be used to chip, rather than a lob wedge.
Following the clinics the children enjoyed a hot lunch, before heading out to compete in the 9 hole Tour Championship. Although many of the pins were tucked away and the greens super slick, a number of outstanding scores were achieved. The results are as follows:
