Junior Development Program
Team Johnson, a unique Junior Development Program, was created in order to spend more time with my junior golf students and help them reach their goals and potential. The participants receive both private and group coaching by me and my staff, observed practice and on course play, encouragement and incentive to advance to the next level and a few cool chotchkies from Nike!
I am pleased that Nike Golf is advocating this program by providing discounted golf gear and apparel to Team Johnson students as they advance through the program levels. 
Each junior is placed into one of four groups depending on their ability. There are four levels, Level 1: Introductory, Level 2: Game Development, Level 3: Tournament Preparation and Level 4: College Preparation.
Level 1: Introductory
- Rules and etiquette
- Course knowledge (what club to use and when)
- Sportsmanship
- Basic swing fundamentals, G.A.S.P (grip, aim, stance, posture)
Level 2: Game Development
- Advanced on-course rules
- Skill sets (drills) of putting, chipping, pitching, bunker and full swing with irons and woods
- Games of golf (match vs. stroke play, etc.)
- Pre-shot routines (mental)
Level 3: Tournament Preparation
- On-course situations (wind, difficult lies, etc.)
- 9 ball flight laws
- Time management (balancing more golf with school work)
- Goal setting
Level 4: College Preparation
- Advanced mental preparation (both on and off the course)
- PROCESS of achieving goals
- New skills and maintenance of sound fundamentals (more on course lessons)
