In 2015, Bent Brook was one of approximately a dozen area golf courses that hosted a team and there were 2,300 teams with 28,000 kids participating nationally. For the last 3 seasons, Bent Brook has hosted our own in-house league with up to 5 teams. In 2019, the were over 5,000 teams and over 60,000 kids participating nationally. During the regular season, the boys and girls ages 6-13 receive group instruction on the fundamentals of the game. They also play in 9-hole matches against other teams using a 2-person scramble format. It is a low-pressure environment that introduces the kids to competition while keeping the focus on learning and having fun.
