South Jersey Golf Schools

The South Jersey Golf Schools started in 1980 with just one camp. In 1992, the SJGS moved to Somerton Springs South Jersey Golf Campus, now called the Big Swing Golf Center. By 1996, this facility was acclaimed as one of the country's top 88 driving ranges by the Golf Range Associations of America. Now after over a decade later, the South Jersey Golf Schools are back!

Today, we offer a vast array of instructional programs helping you enjoy the game more while improving scores. Our staff consists of the area's finest instructors. Our staff specializes in working with players of all ages and abilities. This year marks another exciting year for the SJGS Director, Bob Cardea. He is thrilled to be back at the same place his father, Dr. Don Cardea helped build nearly 20 years ago.
