Washington Youth Golf Academy at Camas Meadows
The Washington Youth Golf Academy (WYGA) at Camas Meadows is a place for youth of all ages and
skills levels to engage in the game of a lifetime. Our specialized golf academy provides world-class instruction
through multiple PGA Professionals with specific and proven areas of expertise. We know that one person
cannot be an expert in all areas of golf, that’s why we have a unique team approach to provide youth with the
most skilled training available. Our belief in community outreach leads our efforts to grow the game and
develop future community leaders through the tools golf provides for success on the course and in life. In
addition to gaining abilities in a game of a lifetime, our programs inspire character growth, long-lasting
friendships, and life skills to prepare youth to achieve their personal goals. We believe that golf is more than a
sport and integrate our core values: Community, Friendship, Character Development, and Fun into all
that we do.
Our professional staff includes Bryce Poulin, Director of Player Development and accomplished youth golf
community member and technology lead, Chris Garrison, PGA, “The Northwest’s Short Game Coach” and
recipient of two Pacific Northwest PGA awards in player development, Bob Duncan, PGA, international oncourse teaching specialist, Golfer Positioning System founder and Master Clubfitter, and Steve Yang, PGA,
accomplished teaching professional in youth coaching. Bryce, Chris, Bob and Steve highlight our specialized,
fun and energetic team at the Washington Youth Golf Academy at Camas Meadows!
From our exciting Junior and Teen group-level programs to our Spring Break & Summer Camps, and from our
Team Play matches to the PGA Junior League and exciting special events, we have something for every youth
in our community at the WYGA at Camas Meadows. For any questions on the WYGA at Camas Meadows,
