How Does a Development League Work?
The League Follows The Op 36 Dev Model:
1
Golfers Play 9 Holes From Division 1 (25 Yards)
Instead of starting at the full tee box, you will have golfers begin in Division 1. This means you will play 9 holes starting 25 yards from each green.
2
If Golfers Shoot Par (36) or Better They Pass Their Division
Their challenge is to shoot 36! If they shoot par (36) or better, they will progress to Division 2, and start 50 yards from each green the next round.
3
Track Progress & Complete as Many Divisions as Possible!
All progress is tracked in the Operation 36 Mobile & Web App. This challenge continues until the golfer can shoot par (36) from all 10 divisions!
Community Goal: Shoot 36 for 9 holes in all 10 Divisions
A CLEAR MODEL TO GROW ROUNDS
Give Your Beginners a Bridge to a USGA Handicap While Solving Pace of Play
We understand that getting beginners on the golf course can seem like a daunting task. That is why we developed the Operation 36 Divisions and Development Model. By having golfers start 25 yards away from the hole the are now playing a golf course that is appropriate for their skill level. A complete beginner will be less overwhelmed and can play in under 2 hours.
IMPROVE PACE OF PLAY
Solve Pace of Play Issues While Creating a Bridge to a Handicap.
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.
- A group of complete beginners can finish in under 2 hours

"The Op 36 divisions offers a better on-course experience in comparison to other juniors programs in the country. The 9-hole events and 12 subject curriculum enables us at Kooyonga to offer a thorough long term development program. This is the reason why I felt the need for the program in Australia."
