Juniors

With 130 young members aged 6–18, Piltdown’s Junior Section is a lively, welcoming community where players learn the game, build confidence, and make lasting friendships. Our juniors enjoy a full programme of expert coaching and fun, sociable events, creating an environment where everyone can thrive.

Thanks to the dedication and hard work invested over recent years, we’re proud to have been awarded Junior Hub status by England Golf, a recognition that reflects the strength, inclusivity, and success of our junior programme.

Coaching

Piltdown is proud to have two PGA Professionals delivering high-quality coaching for juniors of all ages and abilities. Both offer individual and small group lessons, tailored to help young players learn, improve, and enjoy the game.

Head Professional Jason Partridge brings over 20 years’ experience coaching children, creating a supportive and confidence-building environment. He’s joined by Assistant Professional James Doswell, who will be leading weekend group sessions and holiday camps throughout 2026. Jason will also be running girls-only group lessons on Saturdays, providing a welcoming space for young players to develop their skills.

These sessions are a fantastic way for youngsters to try golf in a relaxed, fun setting, build skills at their own pace, and make new friends along the way. Advance booking is essential for all lessons, camps and junior events. To find out more or to book a place, please contact Jason or James on 01825 722389.
