2018 Junior Golf Program The Golf Professional Staff at Eagle Brook is excited to introduce this year s offerings in our Junior Golf Program. We have three programs this year for our junior golfers with programs for any ability and experience. Registration for any of our Junior Golf Programs is available in either the Golf Shop or at the front desk in the Clubhouse. The Eagle Brook Junior Golf Program is open to all Full Golf, Sport, & Social Members. Our season begins with our Gold Bag Tag Certification for juniors interested in earning a Gold Bag Tag and for current Gold Bag Tag Juniors that would like to start the season with an instructional program to help maintain their games. Juniors with Gold Bag Tags have the privilege of playing and practicing at Eagle Brook without the supervision of an adult. The Gold Bag Tag Certification is our way of preparing juniors for golf on their own. The Summer Junior Golf Program begins on June 5th and will be conducted over a 4-week period at the start of the summer. We will have four groups (Little Linksters, 3-Holers, 6-Holers, and 9-Holers) for the juniors that will be determined by each junior s age and/or ability. The Summer Junior Golf Program will meet on Tuesdays and Thursdays for a 50 minute clinic on each day for the Little Linksters, and a 60 minute clinic 3- Holers, and 6-Holers. These groups will also play on the golf course on Tuesdays following the clinic. We are looking for parental assistance with chaperoning junior golfers on the course after the clinics on Tuesdays. We are asking all parents to volunteer at least once during the Summer Junior Golf Program for the oncourse portion. We will have a chaperone signup sheet for the entire program available on the first day of the Summer Junior Golf Program. Please list the date(s) that you will be able to take our junior golfers on the course. We appreciate your support. Our final offering in our Junior Sports Camp offered in July. The Camp will encompass all sports activities offered at Eagle Brook (golf, tennis, and swim) and will be conducted the week of July 24th 27th. Each day the juniors will take part in an hour and a half clinic in each sport. The Camp will be from 9am 2pm and lunch will be provided each day. Please be on the lookout for more information regarding the Junior Sports Camp this Spring. We would like to thank you for allowing your children to participate in our programs at Eagle Brook. Please review the entire registration form and events schedule, fill out the Registration Form, and turn it in to the Golf Shop as soon as possible. Sincerely, Eric Pratali, PGA Director of Golf Eagle Brook Country Club
2018 Gold Bag Tag Certification What is a gold bag tag? A Gold bag tag is a certification tag that qualifies a junior golfer to practice and play at Eagle Brook without a parent or guardian present. How does a Junior earn a Gold bag tag? Junior golfers can earn a Gold Bag Tag by participating in the Certification Sessions, which is a four week program that covers rules, etiquette, on course safety, etc. The final week of the Certification Session is a 9-hole playing qualifier in which the Golf Professional Staff observes each junior golfer to see if they are ready to be on the course by themselves. To qualify for a gold bag tag, a player must: 1. Participate in the Gold Bag Tag Certification 2. Observe the rules of golf and general golf course etiquette 3. Play 9 holes in less than 2 hours and 10 minutes in a foursome 4. Walk 9 holes while carrying his/her clubs 5. Play 9 holes w/ a score of 65 or better ** at discretion of Professional Staff ** 6. Have a passing score on the Junior Certification Quiz ***Any Junior that was certified in 2017, or before, does not have to be re-certified for the 2018 season, but are welcome to participate in the Certification Session*** What happens once a gold bag tag is earned? Once a junior golfer earns their Gold Bag Tag, they are allowed to practice and play at Eagle Brook without having a parent or guardian present (time restrictions may apply). Juniors that earn their Gold Bag Tag may graduate to the 9-Hole group in the Summer Junior Golf Program.

Each hosting team will determine the number of swims a swimmer participates in. Relay participation will depend on the swimmer s best times and coach s discretion. The events the children will compete in will be determined by their coach after considering the following: A child s ability and times The needs of the team, and the availability of the swimmer to swim certain events. The head coach will decide what is in the best interest of the team.
PRACTICES: In order for every child to get the most out of the team experience, the coaching staff will be evaluating all swimmers, and will place them in one of the three practice groups. Silver: For our least experienced swimmers. Refinement of strokes will be worked on while endurance will be perused. Swimmers will closely focus on freestyle with rhythmic breathing, backstroke, racing starts, open and flip turns. Gold: For our moderate swimmers. Swimmers will work on refining strokes. Swimmers in this group will practice legal execution of freestyle, backstroke, and breaststroke. Swimmers will also practice their starts and turns as well as gain an introduction to butterfly. Elite: This practice group will further a swimmers skill mastery of all four competitive strokes, starts, and turns. There will be a strong focus on endurance training. In order to be in this practice group a swimmer must be able to independently swim a minimum of 3000 yards a day. Please do not approach the coach for discussion during practice or at a swim meet. The coach will meet with any parent after the scheduled practices, or prior to/after the swim meet to address individual questions or concerns. PRACTICE SCHEDULE: Group placement: In order to have the most effective practices before our first meet, all swimmers will be tested and evaluated. Please have your child attend one of the following test dates before our first practice. June 11th from 8:00am 9:15am June 13th from 8:00am 9:15am Regular Practices will begin Monday June 18 th from 8:00am 9:15am The team will practice Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays from 8:00 am-9:15 am, weather permitting. In the event of cold weather we will make a decision by 7:30am regarding canceling practice. All practices will be canceled in the event of inclement weather. A swimmer may be assigned to another group at the discretion of the coach. Parents will be notified in this instance. All swimmers are required to attend a minimum of two practices per week in order to participate in swim meets, unless a valid written excuse from a parent or physician is provided. Practicing more often will yield higher results in the long run.

For regular meets, please notify the coach by Monday morning prior to the meet if you will not be participating. SWIMMER AND PARENT CONDUCT: Swimmers are reminded that their behavior reflects on the entire team. It is expected that all swimmers and parents will act in a considerate and sportsmanlike manner to teammates, coaches, parents, officials, and any other member of the swimming community at meets, as well as at practices. Consistent with this premise, team members will remain in the pool area at all times during practice and meets unless otherwise approved by the coach. Any misconduct will be dealt with and may result in suspension from the next scheduled swim meet or suspension from the team. In addition to these special rules, the Eagle Brook Country Club Rules will also be strictly enforced. SWIM MEETS: All of our home meets will be held at Eagle Brook Country Club Pool. All conference meets are held on Wednesday evenings. Check in will be at 5:00pm, and Meets begin at 6:00pm. Our Swim Conference will be held on Sunday, July 29th Location TBA TRANSPORTATION Parents are responsible for transporting their swimmer(s) to all meets.
WEATHER: The policy in regards to questioning the weather (unless there is a tornado sited in the area) is that swimmers must go to the host pool (the place where the meet is being held) until it is determined there by the meet officials to cancel the meet. DO NOT call the coach or the team representative because they will not know if the meet is being held until they get to the host team s pool. We WILL NOT PERMIT any swimmer in the water if thunder can be heard or if lightning is seen. Swimmers will not be permitted back in the water until at least 30 minutes has passed since the last time thunder was heard or lightning was seen. PARENT INVOLVEMENT: In order to make meets successful and well managed all families are asked to work at home meets. If we have more then enough families, each family will work one of the two home meets. Workers must be at least 13 years old, and are asked to be at the entire meet. Some of the positions at a meet include the following: Meet Set up and Tear Down: Help get the pool ready and then clear the deck for the meets. Bull Pen: This group makes sure all swimmers are lined up in proper order for each event. Timers: There are two timers in every lane with a stopwatch. One timer in each lane will need to record times as well. Runners: This position collects timers results after each heat and delivers them to the scoring table. Scorers: Add scores and determines winners from times sent by timers. Ribbon Table: Write winners names and times on the back of the ribbon during the meet and will distribute them to team envelopes. Thank you for your participation in the swim program. We are excited to have you and your swimmer as part of the Eagle Brook Country Club Eagles Swim Team!!
