The first step on the Konnect pathway

The Konnect player development pathway

The Junior Golf School is the entry point to Konnect’s player development pathway. Juniors who show commitment and progress may be invited into the Konnect Elite Junior Academy, a program for high school players preparing for college golf.

Meet the coaches

Elliot Bogdonovich, Program Lead

Elliot coaches young golfers at Horace Mann and Trinity School and has helped coach camps at Asphalt Green. He is a PGA Associate who came to golf after playing semi-professional baseball and now plays to a scratch handicap in national mid-amateur events. For nearly 20 years he has studied both the mechanics and the mental side of the game. He builds fundamentals around each player’s body and abilities so beginners and competitive juniors get coaching that fits them.
