We take golf to a level that kids can't get enough of
And with kids of our own, we deliver the perfect balance of learning and fun
Our sessions do their little hearts a world of good
Welcome to GolfBuddies. We are a Junior Golf Academy and it is our aim to provide a fun, safe introduction to the wonderful game of golf to children of primary school age in the Glasgow/Dunbartonshire area. Using specially designed, child-friendly equipment our pupils learn the basic fundamentals of golf technique in fun filled group sessions.
Golf is a very sociable sport where good manners and sporting values are vitally important and at GolfBuddies we believe strongly in fostering these aspects of the game whilst maintaining an enjoyable, relaxed environment. Children are encouraged to be respectful to each other whilst enjoying the competitive nature of the learning process and it is our sincere hope that participating in the classes leads to existing friendships being strengthened and new ones being formed.

GolfBuddies is an exciting new option for children to learn a fun sport, without all the boring stuff! GolfBuddies provides an alternative to the more traditional ways to learn.
Generally, the academy is aimed at primary school children through their school or club although we are also available for individual events like birthday parties, summer galas, corporate days etc.
Maybe you’re looking to keep your children more active? Give GolfBuddies a shot. We even offer a one hour free taster session.
Golf is a great, interactive sport that helps kids build and expand their social skills. They’ll make new friends, pick up a new hobby while staying fit and having fun doing it.
Golf is often envisaged by parents to be a sport which is too "uncool" for children, a stuffy, expensive game played by the older generation, well GolfBuddies challenges that perception. Our coaching sessions are designed to provide maximum fun at minimum expense. Whether it is regular sessions through school or a club or a one off event like a birthday party, rest assured the children taking part in our classes will have a great time.
Golf is often considered to be one of the most difficult sports to learn but at GolfBuddies we place the emphasis on enjoyment, allowing children to progress at their own pace. Rather than fill heads with technical jargon, we use fun games and exercises to allow children to develop their skills.
Our coaching sessions are aimed at children of primary school age, without doubt the best time to learn golf, or any sport for that matter, and are designed to establish good fundamentals which the children can take with them as they progress in the game. In addition children will learn life skills such as honesty, integrity, teamwork,respect, self confidence and much more.
We welcome all children regardless of ability or fitness level and will always strive to be entirely inclusive.
Golf can seem a very difficult sport in which to get started. Many children express a desire to play only to be put off by the perceived stuffiness of the game. Parents, particularly those who do not play themselves, are often unsure of how to get their child into the game. At GolfBuddies we aim to provide that vital first step in an environment in which children feel comfortable and secure. We want children to enjoy themselves, to relax and have fun whilst learning without the worry of "doing the wrong thing."
