CGX Showcase Camps are a tremendous opportunity for young men and women, ages 10-18 to learn from and interact with multiple coaches in an immersive, fun, and educational setting. Campers will focus on all areas of instruction with an emphasis on wedge play, engage in simulated collegiate practice and tournament rounds, learn from seminars and Q&A sessions hosted by coaches, and receive personalized evaluations.
I’m looking forward to being a part of College Golf Experience’s launch camp. It provides a unique opportunity to pair junior golfers and their parents with college coaches. Campers will benefit from time spent with coaches preparing for college golf and many questions will be answered about the transition process,” said Jim Anderson, Head Coach, University of Arizona.
The Palm Desert Showcase Camp, CGX’s launch camp, will not only feature a star-studded lineup of coaches, but campers will also receive special welcome gifts from adidas, and other companies. Information on the camp can be found at https://collegegolfx.com/palm-desert-showcase/.
“CGX camps are a great way to meet and engage with college coaches in a fun and relaxed environment. Juniors and parents will leave with a clear understanding of what college golf looks like and how to reach their junior and collegiate golfing goals,” said Christian Newton, Head Coach, Colorado State.
