Beginner-friendly girls golf lessons in New Orleans

New Orleans is one of the most underrated junior golf cities in the South. Between Bayou Oaks at City Park, Joseph Bartholomew Golf Course, and a growing network of public-access ranges, the city offers girls more on-ramps into the game than most cities its size. What's been missing is a structured, beginner-first girls golf program in New Orleans — and that's what Girls Golf LPGA* USGA Curriculum exists to build.

Our New Orleans girls golf lessons are designed for girls who have never picked up a club. Small, one-on-one lesson packages that meet Mondays and Wednesdays starting September 2026. Loaner clubs ready on day one — with the option to buy a fitted set at a discount or bring her own. Choose a four-week or eight-week lesson plan that ends with on-course play and a graduation celebration.

Why girls golf matters in New Orleans

The New Orleans golf community runs deep — from the historic significance of Joseph Bartholomew, the trailblazing Black golf course architect, to the youth pathways anchored at Bayou Oaks at City Park. Yet girls remain dramatically underrepresented in junior golf rosters across the city.

Girls-only programming changes that. When confidence is the first thing built, retention into a second season nearly doubles compared to mixed-gender clinics. The instruction doesn't change — the social experience does.

Built for absolute beginners

Our coaching follows the LPGA*USGA Girls Golf methodology — the same framework used by certified Girls Golf sites across the country. The eight-week progression is intentional: foundations → short game → full swing → on-course play.

  • One-on-one lessons with Coach Jen — never a group class
  • Open to girls ages 5–18
  • Clubs are not included — loaner sets available at practice
  • Bring her own clubs, or use a loaner set we keep on-site
  • Loaner clubs available on-site at every practice
  • Coaches trained in the LPGA*USGA Girls Golf framework
  • Parent dashboard with schedule, messages, and photos

Clubs: buy, bring, or borrow

Equipment should never be the reason a girl doesn't try golf. Families have three options: buy a fitted junior set at a discounted academy rate (yours to keep), bring her own clubs if she already has a set, or use loaner clubs we keep on-site at every practice.

Schedule and location

The first New Orleans lesson package runs in September 2026, Mondays and Wednesdays, with two age tracks per evening — 4:00 PM (Ages 5–8) and 5:15 PM (Ages 9–13). Lesson packages are planned in partnership with public-access facilities including Bayou Oaks at City Park and Joseph Bartholomew Golf Course; the final venue is confirmed as interest-list enrollment lands.

A trusted program for New Orleans parents

Every coach is background-checked. Child records, photos, and parent messages live inside a dedicated, private parent dashboard. We operate inside the LPGA*USGA Girls Golf framework so parents know exactly what curriculum and safeguards are in place.

Louisiana girls golf programs, anchored statewide

Girls Golf LPGA*USGA Curriculum is built as a Louisiana platform anchored in New Orleans, with the same curriculum, coaching standards, and safety protocols at every partner facility.
