Children between the ages of eight and 19 are invited to the course from Tuesdays to Fridays, to play as much golf as they can in one day and to also join in lessons from golf professionals.

“Let them be out on the golf course to learn from friends; and don’t forget to send sunblock and money for food,” says Pollak Park pro Rachel Howard.

The course will also be hosting Super Saturday this Saturday. Contact Rachel 076 676 6311 or pro@pollakparkgolf.co.za for bookings now, to avoid disappointment in 2017.

Memberships fees are up for renewal and group/corporate rates are negotiable.
