About the Glen Juniors

We have approximately 100 junior members at the Glen Golf Club, ranging in age from 8 to 18.
There are numerous advantages to junior membership:

  • year-round golf at very low cost
  • on attaining the age of 18, juniors can 'upgrade' to full membership without the
    need to be proposed, seconded and go on the waiting list
  •  a full itinerary including competitions medal (stroke-play), Stableford (points per hole)
    and match-play competitions.
  • a National Handicap gained by submitting scorecards from medal and Stableford
    competitions
  • at the Glen we recognise the importance of providing golf tuition. We provide
    vouchers entitling junior members to free coaching.
  • we are members of the East Lothian Junior League. Any junior can aspire to
    representing his club at this level by showing commitment, loyalty and a consistent
    (or, better still, consistently improving!) level of play.

The Junior Charter

In 2001 the Glen was awarded the Junior Charter (on view in the Clubhouse), a certificate that can only be achieved by providing an environment for the development of junior golf which meets very high standards.

ClubgolfThe Glen supports Clubgolf which will give every 9-year-old child in Scotland the opportunity to receive coaching. http://www.clubgolfscotland-youth.co.uk/
