This program is designed for boys and girls between the ages of 14 and 17. This camp is an opportunity for aspiring college golfers to learn for themselves what college golf is like. These camps offer training and real competition scenarios that develop every part of your game. During the week, campers work on short game, putting, approach shots, course management, and will test their new skills in weekly competitions and 18-hole tournaments. Upon arrival, all participants are evaluated by the staff so that their own instructional needs can be addressed throughout the week.

Champions Golf Course
Champions Golf Course is considered one of Central Ohio’s most challenging public courses because of its rolling fairways, mature trees, demanding doglegs, undulating greens, and hilly terrain. Formerly the Winding Hollow Country Club, Champions first opened in 1922 as a 9 hole course designed by Herbert Strong. In 1954 Robert Trent Jones designed the current 18 hole course as played today. Nestled next to Easton Town Center on the northeast side of Columbus and inside the I-270 outer belt, Champions Golf Course is the perfect place for your golfing destination. An amazing place to hold golf outings, this course will leave a lasting impression on your guests.
