  • Saira had a great time and was excited to go to camp every day! Looking forward to the next one!
  • He had fun though he had one issue with one other kid (and so did other kids). I think one of the coaches stepped in since Brandon and this other kid got along much better the remaining week. I think it's fine for just beginners given it's fun way to introduce. I'm not sure how the camp goes for kids who are exposed but definitely a recommendation for first timers.
  • He was very surprise and happy about winning the trophy. He was also happy that his coach gave him a personal golf ball from his school.
  • Spencer told me that his memorable experience was when he hit the 100m mark in the driving range
  • Mia REALLY enjoyed her Nike Junior Golf Camp experience. Mia's quote on day 1 this was the best day ever. At the conclusion of camp, Mia requested to attend another Nike Golf Camp.
  • Owen said he improved and had fun.

  • I am so happy with the experience. Starting with the teachers, my kids were up early and excited to join the camp because of their coach. The camp was well organized so the kids never got bored.
