KIRKWOOD, Mo. — According to the National Golf Foundation, total rounds of golf were up 21% over the summer. The foundation also reported that there has only been one other year that saw a bigger rise in interest in the sport, and that was 1997 – the year Tiger Woods became a massive sensation.
With golf’s popularity high, it has even affected the St. Louis area. This includes a recently opened clubhouse.
The Family Golf and Learning Center facility offers something for golfers of all skill levels.
In addition to a 9-hole golf course and outdoor driving range, Family Golf and Learning Center has a 2,500-square ft. indoor practice facility, multiple golf simulators, a fitness center, indoor lounge with a restaurant and bar overlooking the outdoor practice area, a full service golf shop (with apparel, clubs, bags, and more), and a club repair shop.
Family Golf and Learning Center is located at 3717 Tree Court Industrial Blvd. in Kirkwood. For more information, call (636) 861-2500 or visit familygolfonline.com.
Reservations are recommended with more restrictions due to COVID-19, and weekends tend to book up.
There is also a virtual Grand Opening Ceremony that begins today, January 25 at 1 p.m. on Family Golf and Learning Center’s Facebook page.
