Troon,® the leader in upscale golf course management, development and marketing is pleased to announce enhancements made to the Troon Family Golf program, making the game even more accessible to juniors and their families at participating Troon-managed facilities around the world.
By adding more value to its family golf program, Troon is making a conscious effort to lead the way in introducing juniors to the game
in simple and affordable ways. Recognizing the importance of helping youth develop their skills and increasing their enjoyment in the game, Troon Family Golf now offers complimentary golf instruction for juniors when taking a lesson with a paying adult.
Juniors and families across the globe now benefit from the program, which recently expanded outside the United States into Europe, Middle East and Africa. In addition to free junior golf instruction, Troon Family Golf allows juniors to play for free after 3 p.m. when playing with a paying adult and complimentary junior rental clubs at more than 90 participating facilities - 365 days a year!
"Making golf instruction more accessible to junior golfers is a key component to both growing the game and ensuring that young players are developing their skills and having fun," stated John Easterbrook, executive vice president, operations, Troon. "The golf course is an ideal setting for families and Troon Family Golf makes it easier for people to gather and enjoy quality time as a family," he added.
Guests can book their next round as a family by contacting their favorite Troon facility and mentioning the Troon Family Golf program. The offer is based on availability, golf lessons must be taken together with the same instructor, and juniors are defined as golfers 15 years of age and under.
