The best junior golf clubs for your child should be:
- The right size (length)
- Properly weighted (the club head should be lighter weight than an adult club)
- Have a suitable shaft flex (more flexible), and
- Be made from quality materials.
Having had two juniors playing golf from age 3 through high school and now college, we have first hand insight into what the best juniors are using and have tried and tested all the best junior golf clubs.
The top rated kids golf clubs are summarized below with additional options for kids club sets later in this article. Advanced, intermediate and beginner categories are based on level of expertise of the junior and club quality.
We also have guides on Toddler Golf Clubs, Golf Clubs for Teens and Advanced Juniors. and Golf Drivers for Kids.

Quick Navigation
Junior golf clubs sets are broadly categorized as Advanced, Intermediate or Beginner.
Advanced sets are suitable for all levels including competitive tournament players and usually include a Driver, Fairway Wood, Hybrid, 5-9 irons, Pitching Wedge, Gap Wedge, Sand Wedge and Putter. This totals 12 clubs, leaving 2 more clubs that can be added depending on preference - most common are a Lob Wedge, 5-Wood, or a Second Hybrid.
Intermediate sets are good quality and could be used for advanced players. All intermediate junior clubs are also great for beginners but they do usually cost a more than beginner kids golf clubs.
How to Choose Junior Golf Club Sets
Number of clubs: juniors trying out golf for the first time might be fine with just two or three clubs. Very young juniors can start with just a putter and a pitching wedge (or putter and a 9 or 8 iron). Advanced sets will generally have 12-14 clubs.
Some beginner and even intermediate kids clubs sets have a wide recommended age or height range - e.g. 5 to 9 years old. Be careful not to get clubs that are too long for your junior.
Guidelines for junior golf club sizes in the table below are based on a junior's height and approximate age range.

These are budget friendly clubs that are designed for kids that just want to try out golf to see if they like it. Most irons are made from a type of metal alloy (as opposed to steel) and shafts are usually made from a cheaper graphite composite.
These are a good inexpensive way to introduce golf to kids - especially at the younger end of the range. There are even kids golf sets under $100 that are fine as a first set. If kids continue playing golf these will usually be replaced with one of the intermediate or advanced options listed above.

Conclusion
Key things to remember:
- Get the right size clubs. Importantly, avoid getting clubs that are too big or too heavy. Do not cut down adult clubs for younger kids, they are too heavy and the shafts are generally too stiff.
- Young kids do not need a full set of clubs to start but as juniors start playing competitive golf the equipment becomes more important
- A putter, wedge (or 8/9 iron) and three-wood or driver are great clubs to start with.
- Get out on the range or course and play fun chipping and putting games with your juniors. Look for a local par 3 course to play. Have challenges getting out bunkers etc. Find a local Topgolf venue to take your kids to.
- If your junior moves on to intermediate or advanced clubs please find a local First Tee to donate your old kids clubs to. For more information read this interview of The First Atlanta.
- Finally, if you are really stuck and unsure of which clubs are suitable, send us a message and we can help make sure you get the right clubs for your child.
