prioritize the improvement process while capturing the student performing drills, exercises and
swing to see positive change and swing improvements
Boditrack captures the golfer’s weight movement patterns in both address and through the
motion of their entire swing.
This technology compliments video by providing a detailed look at a player’s weight position
at every point in the golf swing. The position of your weight has an influence on the
efficient motion of the club through the swing, path, impact position, solid contact and direction
of the shot.

St. Charles Custom Club Fitting
St. Char les Custom Club Fitting
Proper club fitting is vital to the performance of your golf game. Your Pro Shop at St. Charles offers the most comprehensive fitting
program in the province.
Fitting golf equipment is an important process for all golfers. Properly fitted clubs enhance your performance and play a significant
role in the development of your swing. Using improperly fitted golf equipment can lead to a swing of compensations to
accommodate the equipment. Fitting and instruction go hand in hand. Our fitting process and tools provide us the ability to find the
best clubs for your game, without bias to a particular brand. Our experience as instructors allows us to fit equipment that encourages
proper swing development.
We are fortunate to be the regional fitting center for Titleist, while additionally being the primary fitters in Winnipeg for Ping and
TaylorMade. This position provides us considerably more options in shafts and heads than other club fitters, making our program the
most comprehensive fitting program of any Club on the prairies. Your entire bag can be fitted, from driver to wedges.
Putter fitting is as important as the other 13 clubs in your bag...and we do that also. St. Charles is one of three EDEL putter fitters in
Canada. The EDEL system uses various putter styles and offset types to find the putter that you aim best. We measure loft, head
weight, shaft flex and counterbalancing to optimize speed control. Optimizing aim and speed control will result in more putts
dropping in the hole. www.edelgolf.com
Properly fitted equipment is essential to maximize your performance and enjoyment of the game. Please feel welcome to talk
to any of our staff for further details on our fitting programs.

Junior Golf Program
O
ur junior program is designed to provide all ages and skill levels the opportunity to learn and enjoy the game of golf now and
for a lifetime. Juniors can start in our instruction programs as early as age 5 and become members at age 9. We truly believe
that golf can become one of a child’s primary sports. It is a sport that challenges them athletically, while providing an environment
nurturing life skills such as honesty, integrity, responsibility, confidence and sportsmanship.
Our instruction program provides an avenue for beginning players to take their early footsteps into the game and extends all the way
to players who have competitive ambitions locally, provincially and nationally. Our golf events provide our juniors the opportunity
to play in individual and team competitions, while also providing fun events where score is the last thing that matters! In fact, if you
participate in all of our scheduled golf events you will have played over 40 games of golf without ever booking a tee time!
The junior program is an important component to the family atmosphere at St. Charles. We want all of our members to feel welcome
to bring their children to the club and learn the game of golf. Golf is one of the only sports where you can play with your children
and not just watch your children play. Please feel welcome to contact any of our professional staff for more information on our
Junior golf and instruction programs.

As part of our Junior Program, St. Charles is proud to offer a Family Tee program to our membership. The Family Tee program is
designed to encourage our members to introduce their children to the game of golf. This program provides a golf course set up based
on how far our young golfers can hit a golf ball. The course has BLUE and GOLD tees (plates) set into the fairway much like our
150 yard markers. Juniors starting at age 5 and up to age 12 should play these tees based on their skill level.
As part of this program, children of members aged 5 to 8 are now able to use the practice facilities and golf course when
accompanied by their parent. We ask that parents please observe the practice facility and golf course access restrictions as listed
below.
Practice Facility Permissions – Putting Green, Short game and Driving Range
Weekdays – before 11:00 am and after 6:00 pm
Weekends & Holidays – After 3:00 pm
Golf Course Usage
Weekdays after 5:30 pm
Weekends and Holidays after 4:30 pm
Must be accompanied by a parent at all times
Must keep up with the pace of play and always let faster groups play through
Club Dress Code applies. All children must be accompanied by their parent at all times.
Scorecards for Family Tees will be available in the pro shop. Parents will want to use directions to the tee areas until you are
familiar with the locations of the markers on the course.
We are excited about providing the opportunity for our members with young families another component in which to introduce their
children to the game! Please feel free to speak to any of our professional staff regarding this program.

Re c i p r o c a l P r i v i l e g e s
St. Charles Country Club is pleased to announce an outstanding membership benefit which will provide Club members with the
ability to golf at a number of private country clubs across Canada without the necessity of a green fee.
In the past, an unofficial reciprocal play agreement existed among the private golf clubs of Canada, whereby, a tee time could usually
be set up with the payment of a green fee. This practice will continue for the vast majority of Clubs.
The following Clubs have agreed to, on a limited basis, provide golfing members of St. Charles Country Club with a tee time on a
complimentary basis – as will St. Charles provide for their members. The intent of these agreements is to permit full active golf
members in good standing to have full playing and clubhouse privileges at the reciprocal club, subject to the respective host club’s
local Rules, Regulations, Dress Code, Policies and Procedures. Guests are permitted with a green fee.
