Presented by Jeff Ritter, Nike Golf Camp National Director

Introducing NJGC's Jeff Ritter - 2019 Summer Overview and New Instruction Resources

National Director of Instruction, Jeff Ritter, discusses his history with Nike Junior Golf Camps and what drives his passion for junior golf. He describes his childhood golf experiences, watching his father as a teaching professional, and how playing competitively at a young age fueled his desire to help junior players. Coach Ritter has been running Nike Camps since 2007 and he talks about his experiences over the years at the flagship location in Pebble Beach, CA and how the national scope of the camps has changed in the last ten years. We talk about Coach Ritter's new golf academy at Pronghorn Resort in Bend, OR and plans for expanding junior golf and adult school opportunities in Central Oregon.

An exciting new announcement, Nike Junior Golf Camps will now be offering its own instruction segment led by Coach Ritter, which includes short audio lessons, Instagram tips, full-length video segments, golf fitness seminars, and more. Campers and their parents will now be able to receive instruction and other resources on social media and the "Coaches Corner" on USSportsCamps.com.
