The restaurant was packed for the first gathering of juniors and parents on Sunday, March 1, where the year's progress and the junior work were presented by Junior Coach Carl-Cedric – aka “CC” and the Junior Committee. Mikkel in the restaurant served cocoa
When you are a new junior, there are many new things to learn. It may seem overwhelming at first, but there are many of us here at Copenhagen Golf Club who are ready to help you – and above all, playing golf should be fun. You are always welcome to ask us. No question is too small or “silly”.
KGK has one of the largest junior divisions in the country. The juniors range from national team players to brand new golf talents and in a wide age range. It is a strength to be many and to have a wide range, but it also means that there are many levels. Fortunately, the handicap system means that golf can be played by everyone and against everyone – on largely equal terms. At KGK, we try to make it fun for all levels of junior players. Golf can be a difficult sport to start with compared to other sports. It sometimes requires a little patience. Handicap and course permits can seem difficult to obtain at first. It is our experience that with a little more effort at the beginning, it quickly becomes fun – especially if you find some good friends. We value good camaraderie across all ages and levels.
The club has two PGA-trained coaches: Klas Olsson & Carl Cedric are responsible for junior training.
CC can help you with everything about training times, various training teams, lessons, advice about equipment, learning the game and how to get on the big court.
Read more about junior training here.
The Junior Committee can help you with all the information about all the different social activities we have during the year. They can also help you get an overview of which tournaments you can participate in.
See who is part of the committee here.
You can easily borrow golf equipment at the beginning. Please let the coach know before training starts so he can prepare it. The Junior Committee, Coaches and Office can help you with which equipment will suit you best.
Every year we organize Easter camp (time depends on the location of Easter - but typically the weekend after Easter), summer camp & autumn camp. These are some wonderful days where fun and socializing are the main focus.
Furthermore, throughout the season we organize our weekly Junior Thursday, where all juniors register in advance and show up on the day from approx. 3:30 p.m. We play on either the par-3 course or the large course depending on how far along you are in your golf development. We try to play a few different forms of play, but often a regular stableford, so that the handicap can be fine-tuned. Junior Thursday always ends with a joint prize presentation and dinner in the restaurant, if you wish. The family is very welcome to participate too.
In winter there is extra indoor training for those who dare to stay in shape (for an extra fee). We like to meet on selected weekends for a bit of golf on our own course, and then go to the restaurant for a nice hot cocoa and a nice get-together. Or a trip to a golf simulator or mini golf. All to keep the friendships and golf going over the winter.
We primarily use emails to communicate with our juniors and parents. Registration for training is via CC - see also the "training" menu.
It is important that your email in Golfbox (the MitGolf app) is updated. Golfbox is our member database, as well as where you can book time on the course and register for various events and tournaments.
When you registered, you received login information for Golfbox (the MitGolf app) via email.
All registration for internal tournaments and camps etc. takes place via Golfbox - Club Tournament (MitGolf app). If you are in doubt about how Golfbox works, please contact the Junior Committee.
There is no requirement that you play in expensive and fancy golf clothing. Here at Copenhagen Golf Club we play golf in polo shirts with collars (preferably the Junior KGK version) and long shorts when the weather permits. training.
It is always a good idea to have your own equipment for playing on the field.
It is very important that the juniors wear clothes that are suitable for the weather. It will make the experience much better as long as you have the right clothes. Better to have too much clothes than too little and preferably a pair of dry shoes and socks in the back room. Good golf shoes are the alpha and omega.
Rain gear should ALWAYS be in the back!
SUPPORT TIPS
For those of you who are a significant adult for a golf-playing child – parent, grandparent, bonus parent
or others – and you play a role at a golf tournament or at Junior Thursday
You can certainly help your child before, during and after the round, but focus on helping them stay
You can do this by not doing things for them, but instead doing things for them.
together with them or completely let them do it themselves when they are ready.
Before the game
• Arrive at the golf course well before the tee time, depending on how long your player needs to warm up.
• Let the player unpack their bag from the car and check in at registration, help if needed, but don't do it
for them.
• Help get balls to the driving range.
• Help remember food, drinks, rain gear and sunscreen for the round, but remember that the players should also learn this themselves over time.
with age.
• Keep an eye on the clock and, if necessary, help your player arrive at the starting hole at least 5 minutes before the start.
• Tell your child that you are proud of them, no matter how they play.
• Remind them to do their best, have fun and let them know that it is normal to be nervous!
• Check the tournament conditions and help your child to understand the most important conditions. Pay particular attention to
on whether caddies are allowed at the tournament (they are not allowed at Junior Thursday).

During the game
• Keep your distance from the players, but show that you are there to support them, and enjoy the ride.
• If necessary, introduce yourself to the other parents and supporters on the sidelines.
• Make sure to contribute to the good atmosphere and take responsibility for everyone's well-being.
• Be present and attentive – put your phone away and enjoy being present. Your child will notice.
• Help all players look for their golf balls and possibly dig in bunkers.
• Let your child play and gain his or her own experiences and avoid giving advice related to the game of golf.
• Let your child carry/push their golf bag themselves – if it is too heavy, it is a sign that there is too much in it
• Applaud and compliment good shots from all players and praise behaviors that you value, such as fair play, being his
your own referee or a good friend on the field.
After the game
• Let your child tell you about the game, and avoid giving your analysis of the day's game unless they ask you to.
• Ask open-ended questions: “What was the most or least fun about the tournament? What did you learn? Did you have fun?” (More important
than ”how many points did you make?”)
• Enjoy it, talk to the other players and parents while you wait for the prize giving.
• Attend the prize giving ceremony and applaud the players who receive prizes.
And finally, tell your child again that you are proud of them – especially if the game didn't go well.

Future KGK is training for our youngest members between the ages of 5–8.
Here we focus a lot on FUNdamentals and how to play the field in a good way.

The focus is on basic skills and creating a good environment for our girls in the club. We train once a week and participate in Thursday golf.
Training for those who are new to golf or have a higher handicap.
We focus a lot on basic techniques as well as game training, so it will be easier to get around the course and get a course permit or lower your handicap. To participate in 14+ you must be at least 14 years old, the group is for players between 14-18 years old.
For those of you who have been playing for a while, have a handicap under 30 and a keen interest in golf.
We practice once a week and also participate in Thursday golf. To develop yourself, you are also required to practice yourself between lessons.
At Copenhagen Golf Club there are plenty of opportunities for training. All juniors are offered a weekly free training session through their membership. Duration and content depend on the age and how long the junior has been playing golf. Team schedules can be found further down.
If you are completely hooked on golf and can't get enough training or challenges, there is the opportunity to work concentrated on your golf game and choose extra junior training. We also encourage participation in DGU's team tournaments, external individual tournaments under DGU auspices and to train with “Team KGK” as a coach twice a week as well as indoor winter training. It is great fun to play with and against other juniors – and there are challenges at all levels; everyone can join in – and we have great sporting results behind us!
Registration for junior training typically opens in February via email.
The training takes place in the high season, approximately from the Easter holidays to the first week of the summer holidays, and from mid-August to the autumn holidays. Everyone who signs up for training gets 1 hour of free group training per week during the high season with a max. of 16 participants per group.
All juniors who wish to participate in the weekly training should register their interest with Carl-Cedric via registration email.
We have training groups on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays between 4-7 pm, with approximately one hour of training per group.
The training groups are divided into four different themes.
Send an email to Carl-Cedric at cc@kgkggolf-dk and ask to register if you have not already received an email about training, or for general questions about junior training.
Training takes place during the high season, from the Easter holidays until the summer holidays and again after the summer holidays until the autumn holidays. Your training day is determined when you register for training, where you can request training on a team that suits you. There are training teams almost every day of the week - the phrase Junior Thursday, where we train court games.
We train on the principles that the game of golf is based on and adapt the training teams and exercises to the players' needs. It can be station training, training on the par-3 course, recording on video - yes, there are many different ways to train. However, it should first and foremost be fun.
How to get a runway permit in KGK:
The journey towards course licensing begins on our par 3 course.
The game starts on our shorter par 3 course, where the tee spots are marked with colored markings in the ground. The holes are between 25 and 50 meters long. You start on the shortest/front tee. To move back to the longer tee, the player must complete the course in 50 strokes or less from the short tee on 10 holes.
After completing the shorter course, you must play the short-hole course twice from the longest (back) tee (10 holes in total) and achieve a score of under 50 strokes.
The game on the big field:
1. Start on tee 18 and play nine holes with an extra stroke per hole (a stroke over par gives 2 points). The goal is to achieve at least 15 Stableford points.
2. Next step is to play from tee 31 (for girls) or tee 37 (for boys). Here you get three extra strokes per hole (3 strokes over par gives 2 points) over nine holes and must achieve at least 15 Stableford points to be approved.
You can pass steps 1-3 at Junior Thursday or exceptionally on your own with a parent or adult who already has a course permit. This person must sign your scorecard. If you choose to play on your own, you must show the signed scorecard to the CC.
Rules test:
In addition to the game, you must also pass a rules test. The rules test is online and consists of a series of short questions about the rules of golf.
You can get a small rule book at the office or from the junior committee in connection with either training or the Thursday tournament, which can help you answer the questions.
Good luck on your journey towards a runway permit! ⛳
Here we take our training out onto the field.
Those who do not yet have a course permit play on the Par-3 course or the Forward tees, depending on how far they have reached in the “Road to Course Permit”.
After the game, we eat together in the restaurant and have an award ceremony.
The first players on the big court will start at 4:00 PM.
The first players on the Par-3 course will start at 5:00 PM.
Dining in the restaurant is from 7:00 PM.
All Junior and Young Senior members are welcome to participate in Junior Thursday.
Family members are welcome to join in the meal.
We are forced to charge a small fee for games and eating - but at a favorable price, because it should not be a limiting factor for anyone to participate. Every six months you can sign up for a "package", where you pay for all Junior Thursdays via Golfbox (the MitGolf app). We encourage you to sign up for the package solution to avoid cash on the day. It is still possible to come and pay for a single time. The participation fee is then 20 DKK and eating costs DKK 30. The price for bringing family members to eat is: Adults DKK 89 and children DKK 30.
Registration for Junior Thursday and all camps, tournaments, etc. always takes place via Golfbox (MitGolf app) – “club tournament”. If you are not familiar with Golfbox, please contact a member of the Junior Committee and we will guide you. The registration deadline is Tuesday at 12 noon.
Easter camp 2-3 days in connection with the Easter holidays
Summer camp Monday-Thursday first week of summer vacation
Autumn camp 2-3 days in connection with the Autumn holiday
At Camps we do a mix between training and games, and play both individually and in a team format - Texas Scramble or similar. At summer camp we go to Sweden for a day and/or play a course other than our own. The best putter during the week is also to be chosen, and this skilled player wins "The Golden Putter" - a prestigious walking trophy. These are long, but good days. In the autumn we like to combine camp with the puslinge club championship.
There is a big focus on having fun and enjoying the course with both new and old friends. There should be room for everyone.
You register via Golfbox (the MitGolf app). Keep an eye out for ongoing information from the Junior Committee via email.
