Junior Membership

The main aim of the Junior Academy Program is to prepare children to join The Club and embark on their exciting Golf Journey. We are not looking for elite players, but rather on keen and enthusiastic members of the Club. Cadets are viewed as a vital part of the club’s future, and we are passionate about welcoming Junior Members.

Our Club participates in several interclub tournaments, including the Eric Apperly Shield, offering children opportunities to grow both as Golfers and as Club Members. While membership is typically for those aged 14 and over, exceptions may be made for younger children who demonstrate exceptional golfing skills, passion, and enthusiasm.

Non-Member Junior Enquiries

There is no requirement to be a member of Bonnie Doon for your children to participate

Children do not need to be members of Bonnie Doon to participate in our Junior Golf Clinics or lessons. We welcome all children, regardless of membership status at Bonnie Doon or any other golf club. Junior Golf at Bonnie Doon is an important aspect of the club, it is an educational but still enjoyable experience for your children
