HGC Junior Development Committee & Australian Sport Foundation We work with sports clubs and organisations, large and small, and from all over the country, to help raise money for Australian sport. We partner with grassroots and community organisations right through to elite and national levels to help raise funds for vital projects – projects that will help improve the health of our nation, build our communities and strengthen our national sporting identity. Partnering with us means that donations of $2 or more are tax deductible, which is a real benefit to donors and makes fundraising easier. Junior membership at Heidelberg Golf Club offers boys and a girl of all levels the chance to learn and play golf at a highly regarded members’ golf club. Heidelberg Golf Club has a proud tradition of nurturing and successfully developing junior golfers from an early age into promising teenage and adult golfers in their own right. The Heidelberg Golf Club offers a well groomed championship 18-hole golf course and impressive clubhouse facilities for members and visitors. The Club hosts the Annual Junior Open Amateur tournament in January each year attracting top junior golfers from all over Victoria and offering Heidelberg Juniors an opportunity to shine at their home Club.

When can Junior Members play golf?

Juniors can play in every Saturday competition provided you have an A Grade handicap (0 to 9). Otherwise, you can play in the Sunday golf programme (depending on handicap and skill level), and anytime during the week excepting Wednesday unless you have an A Grade handicap. Juniors have reserved access to the tee on Sunday afternoons for games of 4 holes (supervised), 9 holes (semi-supervised) or 18 holes of unsupervised golf. This means it’s all about you with no adults around!


Junior Pennant and Travel

Besides playing and developing your golf skills at your home Club, playing other golf courses, and visiting other golfing facilities is important in progressing your game. Consequently, we provide Junior Members as many opportunities as possible, to play golf at other courses and to meet other junior golfers around the state. This can be achieved by representing the Club in the Junior Pennant competition, or by entering one of the many junior tournaments scheduled during the year. This also gives you the chance to show other golfers what you have got! The Club also arranges an annual golf trip for junior boys and girls somewhere in Victoria.  These trips are a great, fun way to make new friends and to gain great life experiences playing courses other than your own among your fellow junior members. Furthermore, as a junior member at Heidelberg Golf Club you have the ability to play at any number of our Reciprocal Clubs nationally and internationally.
