Illinois Junior Golf Association
PLEASE NOTE: This event will take place at the Wood Dale TopGolf Location!!!

TopGolf is a revolutionary new game in golf that utilizes breakthrough technology, allowing each ball to be personalized to each player, tracking each ball hit and providing instant feedback. Both golfers and non-golfers of all ages and skill level can play TopGolf with up to five people per golf suite.

The TopGolf game itself is quite simple. Think of it almost like bowling or darts, but for golf! Just hit one of our quality golf balls that contains a microchip with your information imbedded into it out into any one of the 11 recessed target greens, ranging from 25 to 250 yards or more in distance. You will then receive immediate personalized feedback sent to the electronic monitor screen in your golf suite. The monitor screen will visually show you exactly how far your ball was hit and how close it came to the flagstick. These two components are then utilized to award a point value for that ball.

And now for the really fun part! The technology allows you to compete with either just yourself or with up to four other players in your golf suite, utilizing handicaps that are calculated for each player after only three games are played to ensure fair point scoring.

TopGolf takes place at a full-size driving range with real clubs, real balls, and a landscaped 250+ Yard outfield with real-live targets! TopGolf provides the ideal practice facility for both serious and aspiring golfers, with “real-time”, accurate feedback on shots.
