The Golf Camps are the ideal way to kick start an interest that is sure to last a lifetime, or to improve the skills and talent that are already showing. The camps take place on the Smurfit Course Driving Range and also incorporate the Smurfit Course Practice Facilities. Each day will cover technical aspects of the game built around self-learning and awareness exercises which will also create team building, fun and increased confidence in each individual. The groups are small with a coaching ratio of 1 coach to every 7 students so individual attention is assured.  The camps are great value and cost €100 per child per week with three hours of coaching per day.
