The announcements, made at Lynwood Golf and Country Club on Thursday, included a new partnership which will see Lynwood become the official home of Jack Newton Junior Golf (JNJG) in Western Sydney, the launch of a rebranded visual identity under the tagline Legacy in Motion, and the release of the 2026 to 2030 Strategic Plan.

From 1 July, Lynwood's existing junior golf academy will be rebranded as the Jack Newton Junior Golf Academy at Lynwood, with JNJG taking full operational responsibility for all junior programs at the venue. The organisation will also relocate its operational office to Lynwood, with staff based on site full-time.

General Manager of Jack Newton Junior Gold, Dale Hughes, said the Lynwood partnership was exactly the kind of move the organisation had been working toward.

"For 40 years, JNJG has delivered opportunities for young golfers right across New South Wales and the A.C.T, but having a place we can truly call home is incredibly special. Lynwood is an outstanding facility, and its commitment to growing the game aligns perfectly with our own. To establish our base here, run our programs from here, and welcome young golfers and families into such a world-class environment is a significant milestone for our organisation and one we're extremely proud of," he said.

Matt Bailey, General Manager of Golf at Lynwood Golf and Country Club, said the club had long been committed to junior development.

"Growing opportunities for participation in junior golf is an important part of the culture of Lynwood and the CHRG Group," he said.

"Partnering with JNJG ensures our commitment to providing young people and families access to quality programs, coaching and clear pathways to develop their skills and passion for the great game of golf."

"JNJG has built one of the most respected junior golf programs in Australia, and bringing that expertise to Lynwood strengthens our ability to support the next generation of golfers. We are proud to become the home of Jack Newton Junior Golf in Western Sydney and excited about the opportunities this partnership will create for junior participation and development," he said.

The partnership will kick off with a Jack Newton Junior Golf School Holiday Camp at Lynwood, with entries open now.

Alongside the partnership, JNJG unveiled a new brand identity built around its three program pillars: Juniors, which focuses on introducing young people to the game; Tours, the organisation's competitive core; and Talent, which supports advanced players through elite development programs.

Hughes said the new look was designed to reflect where the organisation was heading, as much as where it had been.

"The new identity is built on legacy, but it is designed for the next generation. It reflects where JNJG has come from, and more importantly, where we are going: one clear pathway from first swing to elite performance," he said.

The 2026 to 2030 Strategic Plan, also launched on Thursday, sets out the organisation's goals for the next five years, including expanding participation through new partnerships and programs, growing the competitive pathway from grassroots to elite level, and building sustainable revenue to support long-term operations.

Chair of JNJG, Clint Newton, son of the organisation's founder, said the plan represented a firm commitment to junior golf's future in New South Wales.

"As Jack's son and Chair of Jack Newton Junior Golf, this milestone is incredibly special. Forty years ago, Dad had a simple vision: to give every young Australian the opportunity to experience and love the game of golf. He believed golf was about far more than developing great players. It was about developing great people," he said.

Founded in 1986 by the late Jack Newton, the organisation has spent four decades developing young golfers across New South Wales. Clint Newton said the anniversary was a moment to reflect on his father's vision and what still lay ahead.

"Everything we are announcing today is a continuation of Dad's vision. Forty years on, his legacy lives through the hundreds of thousands of young people who have come through our programs, and through our commitment to ensuring future generations have the same opportunity to learn, grow and succeed. The legacy lives on, and it is still in motion," he said.
