How would Operation 36 work at my golf facility?
Running Operation 36 is as simple as running weekly clinics and a 9 hole league together. The only difference is there is a fun, holistic, and trackable development plan for your golfers.
1. Participants Attend a Weekly 1 Hour Class & work through the 6 Level Curriculum
Very similar to subjects in school, one or two of these skills is covered in class each week. The skills each have an educational goal to work towards that challenge golfers to work on developing their game. These Skills and Goals are guides in golfers development.
At the core of Operation 36 are the structured weekly classes. Each class consists of fun training activities and an Education Block where your team will teach a skill or concept from the Op 36 Curriculum.

I joined the Op 36 community in January of 2018 specifically to improve my junior golf program, but Op 36 has done so much more for my business than just junior golf. It has also enhanced my adult group classes. Op 36 is the “EASY” button for any golf pro wanting to elevate their programs.

Operation 36 is a complete game changer! We went from 35 juniors 3 years ago to 109 in summer 2020! It is the most thorough and focused program I have seen. Golfers love how dynamic the learning is and absolutely love the playing component! I am lucky to be a part of such a great program!

Juniors
Parents are looking for a completed junior program that develops their kids into life-long golfers. Offering season long structured programs gives parents the confidence that you are providing their junior with the best instruction available.
Adults
Learning a new sport is an overwhelming and scary idea for most beginners. Our most successful adult programs break down this barrier by offering their programs with groups of friends that can learn together, and also groups of the same skill level.

Since we joined the Operation 36 network in early 2017, it has revolutionized our player development program and the atmosphere of our entire Club. We've been able to "check all of the boxes" of our Board's goals for Club operations, in large part due to our Academy and the golf program. We've grown our membership, lowered our average age, increased site visits, enhanced food & beverage sales, and more importantly; improved the quality of life for over 100 families in our community.

I can say that OP36 has been a game changer at Granite Bay Golf Club. I started with 12 students. Now I am over 80 players per semester. This program has changed youth golf at our facility for the better. The future is endless and I am so proud to be on this journey using the OP36 program.

Yes! We recommend that every student starts in Rank 1 no matter their skill level for multiple reasons. First, to track their full progress you will want to have a baseline for all of their Divisions.
We recommend that you run Op 36 as its own separate program. Consumers want to be well informed about what they are paying for. If you combine Op 36 with other programs your students will be confused about the program.
Your assigned Program Advisor will assist you with your marketing materials from Day 1 and introduce you to a vast Resource Center made up of Program Templates, Guides, Tutorials, and Best Practices.
The main difference between junior and adult programming involves the way the classes are delivered. Your junior programming will included more games and activities, while your adult programming will go over the education more.
We have found that the 9 hole rounds take an average of 2 hours to complete. If you have a group of Division 1 golfers we usually see them finish in 1 hr 30 mins.
To better answer this question we highly recommend that you jump on a call with one of our program consultants. They can go over your schedule with you to determine whether Op 36 will be a good fit at your facility.
