Bowen Golf is proud to be a First Tee BC location. We offer proven systems have helped hundreds of thousands of kids discover their love for the game. Those under 19 play for free, with free rental clubs, and with the support of First Tee BC, we offer many subsidized or free programs.

First Tee is more than golf lessons — it's a youth development program that uses golf to teach life skills. As a First Tee facility, Bowen Golf is committed to helping young people build character, confidence, and resilience that extends far beyond the golf course. Participants learn the following core values:

Operation 36 revolutionizes golf instruction by starting you just 25 yards from the green. Your goal? Shoot 36 (par) or better over 9 holes to progress to the next level. This approach builds confidence, creates early success, and provides a clear roadmap from beginner to skilled golfer.
Both our adult and junior programs use the Operation 36 development model — a proven system that's helped over 225,000 golfers worldwide discover their game. Instead of struggling at the full driving range, you'll start just 25 yards from the green and progress through measurable levels. This approach builds early success, maintains motivation, and creates real golfers, not frustrated beginners.
Your coach makes all the difference. Our PGA of Canada professionals bring expertise, enthusiasm, and a genuine commitment to helping you succeed — whether you're taking your first swing or competing at a high level.
