Junior Golf Lessons

In every Emerald Greens youth golf lesson, we seek to create an authentic golf learning experience for every child! We always use real golf balls with real clubs on real grass. We learn to chip and putt on regulation greens. With a 3:1 student to staff ratio, we create a safe and guided environment where every child can learn to better play the great game of golf!

Lesson times vary to fit your schedule. Listed below you will find:
• Private lessons,
• One week beginner camps,
• Once-a-week lessons (for both beginner and intermediate),
• Parent/child lessons, and
• a Junior Golf Academy for intermediate and advanced students

All equipment (clubs, balls, tees, etc.) is provided for those who want it, both youth and adults.

League play is available for the intermediate and advanced levels.

The program is directed by PGA Golf Professional Barry Wallin, Director of Golf Instruction at Emerald Greens GC and Head Girls’ Golf Coach at Rosemount High School. His staff includes a select group of accomplished collegiate and high school golfers, who are also excellent at working with kids. Coach Wallin is a 3-time MN Section Girls Golf Coach of the Year (2009, 2014, 2017), and a 2-time MN State Girls Golf Coach of the Year (2009, 2014). He was inducted into the MN State Golf Coaches Association Hall of Fame in 2018.
