Crossfield is home to Canada's largest Junior Golf Academy.

Collicutt Sidings Golf Club, hosts an introduction to golf for boys and girls ages 4 to 14.

Kids can sign up for sessions on either Monday or Wednesday nights, at 5:00, 6:00, and 7:00.

The program focuses on three major areas of development; chipping, putting, and full swinging.

Upon arrival, kids meet at the driving range, and are divided into 3 groups for each station.

Rotating every 15 minutes, participants are ensured sufficient time on each station every week. 

Kids are treated to a hot dog and a drink every week, which is covered by their registration fee. Junior golfers are also challenged to a putting or chipping challenge, offering a ring pop to those who can sink their ball. 

Participants are encouraged to bring their own clubs, but Collicutt offers plenty for those who do not have them.

The Junior Academy has been underway since the Monday after May Long Weekend (May 30th) and runs right through to the end of August.

Registration costs $55 and those who registered for the full season will receive a shoulder bag.
