What are Junior Golf Rating Standards?
“Junior Golf Rating Standards” is an industry standard developed by industry experts organised by the China Golf Association in accordance with the requirements of the state to enhance the sports skills of the youth. The “Grade Standard” is measured based on the growth and development characteristics of young individuals and the rules of sports training, following the principle of gradual progress. It is divided into three stages: the entry stage, improvement stage, and professional stage. Each stage consists of one to three levels, forming a “three stages and nine levels” system pattern. The “Grade Standard” has officially become the benchmark for national youth golf practice and evaluation, providing guidance for young golf enthusiasts to learn and enhance their golf skills.
“Junior Golf Skill Grade Standard” (hereinafter referred to as “Standard”). This “standard” adopts 4 grade and 12 levels in total. Among them, levels 1-3 are entry-level, 4-6 are advanced, and 7-9 are professional.
Teenagers are currently assessed till level 9.
Why should children be encouraged to take the level test?
Encouraging children to participate in the golf level test provides purpose and structure to their training, allowing them to set clear goals and develop skills in a focused manner. By obtaining grade certificates, children experience a sense of achievement and gain confidence and motivation to continue improving. Being part of the early stages of the evolving level test offers advantages as they can benefit from the resources and support that will be refined over time. Embracing the opportunities of the level test enhances golfing abilities, instills important values, and fosters a lifelong love for the sport.
