The Five E's of Girls Golf
Building Better Golfers—and Confident Young Women
One of the foundations of LPGA*USGA Girls Golf is the Five E's.
The Five E's recognize that junior golf development isn't only about scores, swings, and technique. Golf can also be a powerful way to develop confidence, character, friendships, healthy habits, and important life skills.
1
EMPOWER
Building confidence and encouraging girls to dream big.
As girls improve their golf skills and accomplish new goals, they begin developing greater confidence in themselves.
Our coaches encourage players to challenge themselves, celebrate improvement, learn from mistakes, and recognize what they are capable of accomplishing.
Confidence developed on the golf course can carry into school, relationships, future athletics, and everyday life.
2
ENRICH
Expanding knowledge, skills, and opportunities.
Girls learn much more than how to hit a golf ball.
Instruction can introduce players to golf fundamentals, rules, etiquette, course strategy, sportsmanship, and the traditions of the game.
As players advance, golf can also open doors to competitive opportunities and provide goals that encourage continued personal and athletic development.
3
ENGAGE
Creating friendships, mentorship, and positive connections.
Golf becomes even more rewarding when girls experience it together.
Group instruction and activities provide opportunities to meet other young golfers, develop friendships, work together, encourage one another, and learn from positive coaches and role models.
We want every participant to feel that she belongs.
4
EXERCISE
Encouraging active minds and healthy bodies.
Golf provides an opportunity for girls to spend time outdoors, stay physically active, improve coordination, and develop focus and concentration.
Our program encourages girls to recognize the connection between physical activity, mental preparation, healthy habits, and athletic performance.
Golf is also a sport they can continue enjoying throughout their lives.
5
ENERGIZE
Making golf exciting, positive, and fun.
Learning is most effective when young players enjoy what they're doing.
That's why Girls Golf isn't simply about standing on a driving range hitting golf balls.
Instruction, games, challenges, group activities, and other experiences help keep players interested, involved, and excited about coming back to the golf course.
Our goal is simple: help girls develop a lifelong love for golf.
Our goal is to create an environment where girls feel:
Important • Appreciated • Respected • Supported • Safe
Girls can develop their golf skills at their own pace while being encouraged to believe in themselves, try new things, set goals, and enjoy being part of the golf community.

Beginner to Developing Competitive Golfer
There's a Place to Start
One of the advantages of Girls Golf is that a player doesn't need years of experience to participate.
New Golfers
Girls who are new to golf can learn basic fundamentals in a supportive environment without feeling intimidated.
Developing Golfers
Players who already understand the basics can continue developing their swing, short game, course knowledge, confidence, and consistency.
Competitive-Minded Golfers
Girls interested in taking their game further can build stronger fundamentals and develop the discipline, course-management skills, and confidence needed for more competitive golf.
At Inland Golf Academy, we believe development should happen at the appropriate pace for each golfer.

Golf Skills That Last. Life Skills That Matter.
The lessons learned through golf extend far beyond the course.
Every practice session presents opportunities to develop patience, perseverance, responsibility, concentration, decision-making, confidence, and respect.
Sometimes a shot doesn't go as planned.
Sometimes achieving a goal takes longer than expected.
Learning how to respond, adjust, and keep moving forward is part of becoming a golfer—and part of growing up.
That's why our goal isn't simply to develop better swings.
We want to help develop confident young people who enjoy the game and believe in what they can accomplish.
