PGA JR. LEAGUE
JUNIORS AGES 7-18
A GAME AND EXPERIENCE OF ITS OWN
Behind each and every PGA Jr. League team supervised coaching provides a safe, caring and organized environment for every child to become (and stay) a golfer. Easily one of the best parts of PGA Jr. League is the team component! Similar to a LIttle League Baseball/Softball, PGAJL consists of supervised coaching and instruction and on-course golf play in weekly matches.
We believe that every child can be a golfer. All skill levels are welcome, and no prior golf experience is required to participate in the program from new to advanced. PGA Jr. League includes three age divisions: 9u, 13u and 17u.
Families are encouraged to take an active role as spectators and volunteers within their local league. Connect with your local PGA Coach regarding these opportunities when you register for a program. Some leagues are in-house and others can be formed across multiple facilities, where teams take turns visiting each other’s golf courses and playing against one another.
The required annual $120 #GameChanger Club membership includes custom jerseys, which are worn throughout as many seasons as you’d like to participate in within the calendar year.
