Junior Golf Programs

Per-play fees are waived for Annual Junior Pass holders. The Junior Pass also includes six Junior Guest Passes, which may be offered to any junior golfer who joins the Junior Pass holder for a round of golf. The pass may be used during non-prime time only. Purchase at any Pro Shop.

The City of Fort Collins Youth Golf Scholarship Fund, generously supported by Pedersen Toyota, is an initiative designed to generate enthusiasm, increase access and promote participation in the game of golf among junior golfers (ages 5-17) in the local community.

Youth Golf Scholarships are available to junior golfers on an annual basis. Preference will be given to residents of Fort Collins and neighboring communities. A link to the application will be posted when applications open for the upcoming season.
