Cabragolf Juniors

CJG - Cabramatta Junior Golfers

Cabragolf junior development programme starts at nine years of age. We welcome juniors who live in our area. Tuition is carried out with our professional Matthew Dowd with assistance of 2 senior A Grade players namely Bob Brown and Tom Bicanic. We are in our 25th year culminating this year with winning the junior pennant flag for the first time.

Previously our junior boys won the encourage shield on 3 occasions and junior girls once. Mr Bill Watson, our club juniors co-ordinator puts a great deal of his time and patience into teaching starting junior golfers the etiquette of the game.

Until such time when Mr Watson believes a junior player is capable of playing in the club competitions, a handicap will be assigned to the junior player and thus making him or her officially a club member. Training venue is at Hoxton Park Golf Range on Saturday mornings from 7:30am to 10:00am. For positions availability in our junior program and more information contact our resident professional Matthew Dowd on (02) 9602 1516

Our first attempt at putting a girls team in the Encourage shield competition has proved a winner with our team winning the pennant title. Our winning team triumphed at Muirfield Golf Course against The Coast Golf Club winning 3/2. Team Managers, Paula Murray (Associate Captain) and Debbie Carrier (Associate President) lost a few nails and gained a few gray hairs during the Match but said it was all worth it to see the jubilation on the girls faces. Congratulations.
