Visa & Passport
Since January 2021, a valid passport is required to enter the UK. It is no longer possible to travel with a national Identity Card.
In most instances, juniors attending Mypro Golf Camp will not need a Visa, even since Brexit. But, in instances when a Visa is required, it’s the responsibility of the applicant to apply for such travel documentation.
It takes less than a minute to find out if you need a visa, just click here.
If you would like to find out more about visiting the UK after Brexit, please follow this link: Visiting The UK
Travel & Medical Insurance
All junior campers must purchase suitable travel insurance which covers them when abroad. If you’re from the European Union, standard travel insurance will cover your child. But if you’re from outside the EU, you’ll need to make arrangements for medical insurance as well.

Safety & Security
At Mypro the safety and welfare of our juniors is our number one priority.
When juniors arrive at Mypro, they’re introduced to their group and our team. The members of the staff are available 24 hours per day to provide pastoral care and support throughout the camp. Our dedicated staff go the extra mile to ensure that all aspects of the camp run seamlessly and our juniors have a wonderful camp experience.
St Andrews is renown as one of the safest university towns. Offering a fun and safe environment for juniors, parents can trust their children are safe, happy and well looked after.
You can find a lot more information on our brochure and you’re also welcome to get in touch if you have any questions.
