Camp Coaches

Nike Junior Golf Director Andrew Collins
Coach Collins has been playing golf for 12 years, including competitive high school golf. He started in the golf business in early 2021 and started teaching that same year. Working with over 150+ kids over those years, from very beginners to the advanced golfer. Coach Collins has set up and ran beginner golf camps, junior league programs, and dome golf programs over the offseason, high school prep classes, and any kid related programs offered at Whitetail Ridge. He is great at working with kids of all ages, and I love to make the game of golf enjoyable for the kids while they improve their skills.
Camp Details
These programs are designed for boys and girls between the ages of 8 and 17 (varies by program). The staff is on hand to provide campers with top quality instruction each day. At Nike Junior Golf Camps we accommodate all skill levels; the junior player just discovering the game, the high school player trying to move up on the team, and the tournament level junior looking to improve his or her tournament results. Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week.

Whitetail Ridge Golf Club:
Whitetail Ridge Golf Club's beautiful par-71, 6,828-yard championship-worthy design was created by golf course architect Greg Martin to blend seamlessly with its pristine natural surroundings in the rolling hills of Yorkville. The Front 9 is situated in the valley with deep views into the tree-lined farmland and has a creek that slices through its relatively flat terrain. The back 9 begins with a climb up the hills and bends back toward the tall Oaks and wooded slopes. As you reach 16 tee, your view South back into the Valley allows you to see the true elevation change this course sees from front to back with miles of views into the distant farm land.
