THE RISING STARS PROGRAMME

From first swings to confident course play

After completing LittleStars, children graduate into the GolfStars programme as RisingStars.

The RisingStars pathway is the first four levels of the programme and is aimed primarily at ages 5-11, and is ability based designed to build confidence, skill, focus, and on-course readiness.

How progress works

Golfers progress by demonstrating improvement across these areas during weekly coaching sessions and matchdays and on-course activities.

This structure promotes steady, meaningful development, ensuring progress in earned rather than rushed.

The same five areas remain at the heart of every level, with the challenge gradually increasing as golfers move through their own pathway.

SESSIONS BOOK

Progress is designed to be visible, exciting & motivating

Risingstars is built around a clear and exciting progression system that recognises effort, celebrates improvement and motivates young golfers to keep developing.

We’ve chosen this approach to:

Visible Progression

Risingstars uses a structured system where golfers see and celebrate their progress as they develop their skills.

Celebrate Success

Coaches recognise progress with high-fives, encouragement and group recognition, helping build confidence and motivation.

Starter Pack

Every golfer receives a Risingstars pack including a folder, level scorecard, ball marker and official Risingstars kit.

Level Up

Once a scorecard is completed, golfers progress to the next level and receive a Risingstars badge, certificate and a new scorecard.

Earn Stickers

During weekly sessions and on-course activities, golfers collect stickers on their scorecard as they achieve parts of their level criteria.
