South Muskoka Junior Program Registration Form

IMPORANT NOTICE

Please be advised that we are not accepting any new juniors for membership or Junior Night at this time due to capacity limitations. If you are new to South and interested in registering your child for memberhsip and/or Monday Junior Nights, please contact Head Professional Jacklynn Miller to be placed on a waitlist. Thank you for your understanding. 

Junior golfers are the cornerstone of our South Muskoka, and fun is at the core of everything we do.

We strive to provide several different programs that cater to all ages and skill levels. To better streamline programming, we have made some changes to our scheduling. It is our hope that these changes will allow us to welcome new juniors to the program while ensuring our juniors are receiving the level of instruction that is appropriate to their goals.

We encourage parents to explore our 2025 JUNIOR PROGRAM GUIDE for further information. In short, there are two main streams being offer this season: 1) Recreational and 2) Developmental/Competitive. Please review the programming information and reach out to us if you have any questions. 

Please note: We strive to keep our junior programming at a reasonable cost and recognize that families have varying financial situations. We never want money to be a barrier to your child's access to the game of golf. If you require assistance in any capacity, we would be happy to work with you to find a suitable solution. Please know that all correspondence will be treated with the strictest confidence.

Please note: Ages are determined by your child’s age as of August 1, 2025, in line with Golf Ontario’s guidelines.

We are pleased to offer several different programs for youth of all ages and skill levels. Please read the below options carefully before moving forward to registration.
