Have a budding golf pro at home? It should come as no surprise that New York City is home to a handful of stellar golf summer camps—many taught by world-class golf professionals. All of the golf summer camps feature on-course golf training. We've also found some high-tech golf simulators in the city that offer junior golf lessons. Kids as young as age 5—whether they're beginners or seasoned golfers—can take advantage of these golf summer camps and golf classes in Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, and the Bronx.

For more summer camps in New York City, including free and cheap summer camps for NYC Kids and free summer sports programming, be sure to bookmark our NYC Summer Camp Guide and our Camp Directory where you can search for summer camps by type, age, and neighborhood.
