STUDLEY Wood have launched a new junior membership aimed at encouraging children aged six to 12.

The ‘Studley Star’ package costs £99 for the year and allows juniors to sign in adults at a discounted rate.

The first enrolment day last weekend saw 16 youngsters receive coaching and play on a new short course, which has been especially designed for juniors.

It is hoped that the new initiative will appeal to a wider range of children and feed into an already active junior section at the club, near Beckley.

The Studley Stars will have access to monthly coaching and competitions.

It is all being led by experienced PGA professionals Andy Charlton, Tom Baker and Pat Flynn.

They will also have reserved tee times to play the tailor made course on the front nine.

The next enrolment day will be held on Saturday, June 13 from 3.30pm.
