Children's golf kits

A bag and clubs for children

The junior golf kit combines a lightweight bag with a selection of clubs sized for a child: length, weight, shaft stiffness, and grip diameter are reduced. It's the easiest solution to start at golf school without having to put together a bag club by club. Properly sized clubs allow the child to make a full swing in balance, without compensating for a club that's too long or too heavy with bad posture. The kits are available in size ranges, often indicated by a colour or code, rather than by age, as two children of the same age can have several centimetres difference in height.

How many clubs are in a junior kit?

A junior kit generally includes three to eight clubs, while golf rules allow up to fourteen clubs in the bag in competition. The smallest kit often includes just a wood or hybrid, an iron, and a putter. More complete kits add a driver, two or three irons of different distances, an easier-to-play hybrid than a long iron, and a wedge for approach shots and bunker escapes. The graphite shafts, which are lighter than steel, help the child gain speed. It’s better to have a few well-suited clubs than a heavy bag that’s hard to carry on the course.

Choosing the kit based on size and dominant hand

The kit is chosen based on the child's height, measured with shoes on, referring to the manufacturer's chart; if the child is between two sizes, the larger one allows room for growth, provided the clubs aren’t too heavy. The dominant hand also matters: a left-handed child needs a left-handed kit, where the club heads are oriented the other way. The kit’s bag, with straps and a stand, can be carried or placed on a trolley. The kit should be replaced when the clubs become too short: the child then bends too much at address and loses consistency.

Good deals

Good deals can also be found in the good deals, promotions, clearance, sales, and Black Friday. The new arrivals showcase the latest collections, and items shipped in 24h are prepared and dispatched within 24 hours. Key dates throughout the year follow a stable order: Black Friday at the end of autumn, the end-of-year holidays, winter sales, spring French Days, then summer sales and back to school.

Frequently Asked Questions

At what age should you give a child a golf kit?

The smallest kits are suitable from three or four years old, to discover putting and the first swings. The important thing is to choose the kit based on the child’s height, not just their age, so they maintain a natural swing.

Can adult clubs be shortened for a child?

This is not recommended: a cut adult club remains too heavy and its shaft becomes too stiff for a child's speed. A junior kit, designed with lightweight shafts and thinner grips, helps them improve.

Are there junior golf kits for left-handed players?

Yes, many kits are available in left-handed versions, with club heads oriented the other way. Check the child's playing hand at the driving range before purchasing: some left-handed children who write that way play right-handed.

How long can a junior golf kit last?

Each kit covers a height range defined by the manufacturer, generally one to three years of growth. When the child bends too much at address, it’s time to move up to the next kit.

Is a golf kit enough to play a full course?

Yes, a junior kit with six to eight clubs covers driving, iron play, approaches, and putting. The smallest kits, being more limited, are mainly designed for the driving range and short courses at golf schools.
