Programs and Instructions

Recreation Park 9 Men’s Club

Open to players of all ages and expertise, the Men’s Club consists of approximately 80 members and congregates every Saturday and Sunday morning to play the course, fostering members’ common passion for golf. A great way to work in exercise and connect with other golfers, the Men’s Club encourages friendly competition and a sense of community.

Recreation Park 9 Ladies’ Club

Meeting every Friday for two rounds, the Ladies’ Club includes approximately 30 active members, creating a strong community of female golfers who appreciate both camaraderie and healthy competition. More physically exerting than a book club and more social than swimming laps, this group is a great way to connect with other golf enthusiasts and play on a regular basis.

Individual and Group Instruction

Our seasoned golf teaching professional, Rian Cooley, offers instruction for men, women, and groups of all abilities, including a junior golf camp that takes place over the summer. From basic fundamentals and fine-tuning to on-course instruction in strategy and shot selection, Rian will customize a curriculum tailored to your individualized needs.
