Our Programs
Birdie Buddies® offers a variety of programs designed to teach golf to children ages 3-8 in a fun, engaging, and age-appropriate way. Whether your child is just getting started or already enjoys the game, our programs help young golfers build skills, confidence, character, and a lifelong love for golf.
School Programs
12 week sessions
Our signature school program is offered during the school day at partner schools, preschools, and childcare centers.
Children participate in one class per week for 12 weeks while progressing through the Birdie Buddies curriculum. Through games, challenges, and skill-building activities, they develop golf fundamentals, coordination, confidence, and sportsmanship in a fun and encouraging environment.
After-School Programs
Semester-Based Enrichment Programs
Birdie Buddies partners with private schools to offer after-school golf enrichment programs throughout the school year.
Designed for both beginners and returning golfers, these weekly classes provide children with an opportunity to continue developing their skills.
NEW! Community Classes
8-Week Sessions
We're excited to introduce Birdie Buddies Community Classes!
Designed for homeschool families seeking quality enrichment opportunities and for school-aged children looking for a fun and engaging after-school activity, these classes bring the Birdie Buddies experience directly to the community.
Over eight weeks, children participate in golf games, challenges, team competitions, and skill-building activities while learning the fundamentals of the game in a positive and encouraging environment.
Whether your child is picking up a golf club for the first time or already enjoys the game, Birdie Buddies Community Classes provide a unique opportunity to build skills, confidence, friendships, and a lifelong love for golf.

The Birdie Buddies Experience
What Happens in Class?
Every Birdie Buddies class begins with the Birdie Buddies Warm-Up before moving into golf games, skill-building activities, team competitions, and individual challenges designed to keep children active, engaged, and excited to learn.
Children develop fundamental golf skills including:
• Proper grip and setup
• Putting
• Chipping
• Full swing fundamentals
• Hand-eye coordination
• Target awareness
• Golf etiquette
One of the traditions that makes Birdie Buddies special is our "Ladies First" culture. Before activities and competitions, girls are invited to go first, helping teach boys the importance of respect, kindness, and what it means to be a young gentleman.
Every class is built around positive reinforcement, encouragement, and celebrating progress so that every child can experience success.
Meet Dimples!
Dimples is the official Birdie Buddies mascot and a favorite among our young golfers.
Throughout each session, Dimples helps celebrate achievements, reinforce positive behavior, and make learning golf even more fun.
At the end of every class, children earn special Dimples stamps and stickers to recognize their effort, participation, and accomplishments. It's a tradition that keeps young golfers motivated and excited to return each week.
Championship Day
Every Birdie Buddies program concludes with a special Championship Class where children celebrate their accomplishments and showcase the skills they have learned throughout the session.
Each participant receives:
- An Official Birdie Buddies Medal
- A Birdie Buddies Certificate of Achievement
Because every Birdie Buddy deserves to feel proud of their hard work and success.
