• Through a collaboration between the Golf Foundation and England Golf, we have developed Junior Hubs with the goal of identifying and showcasing clubs that are the ‘right place’ for juniors to try, learn and love golf. We have jointly created an award for clubs to aspire to achieve and will support the club in their commitment to developing junior golf.

    To support your aspirations for your junior section and process your application, there are a few key considerations and information to have to hand before you start the process which are outlined below:

    1.  Ensure you have made key personnel aware that you’re applying for Junior Hub Award, this should be at least the General Manager, Junior Organiser and PGA Coach.

    2.  Be prepared to proivde evidence of your current junior offer in the various stages of the 'Junior Journey':

    • Introduction to Golf (School and Community Links)
    • Club Introductions (Recruitment)
    • Skill Development (Coaching)
    • On the Golf Course (Playing opportunities)
