1. 1.Book junior golf clinics well in advance, especially during spring break and summer months when they fill up quickly
2. 2.Visit the iconic 17th hole island green viewing area even if you're not playing,it's free to watch and kids love seeing golfers attempt the challenging water-surrounded green
3. 3.Bring sunscreen, hats, and plenty of water as Florida sun can be intense on the open course
4. 4.Consider starting with the shorter family golf experience before committing to full junior programs to gauge your child's interest level
5. 5.Arrive early in the morning for cooler temperatures and less crowded facilities

Fall through early spring (October-April) offers the most comfortable weather for outdoor golf activities. Weekday mornings are less crowded than weekends, and the cooler morning hours (7-10 AM) are ideal for keeping kids comfortable during lessons or play.

Junior programs and family golf experiences require advance reservations and come at premium pricing typical of world-class golf facilities. On-site dining is available, and the resort offers ample parking with easy access to both the golf courses and viewing areas.

Peak golf season runs October through May when weather is most pleasant. Summer months (June-September) can be very hot and humid with afternoon thunderstorms common. THE PLAYERS Championship in March brings massive crowds but exciting energy,not ideal for first-time junior golf visits but great for spectating.
