Watch as Carlos – who stumbles upon PGA Jr. League while hunting Big Foot – learns what PGA Jr. League is all about.
PGA Jr. League is all about the recreational and developmental nature of regular season matches, held between March 1 and July 31.
During the course of one game, teams play four 9-hole matches in a popular two-person scramble format, reinforcing the team concept and creating a nurturing environment for learning the game. Coaches can also substitute players every three holes, so that all of the golfers on each team can participate.
PGA Jr. League is open to both boys and girls, 13 and under*, of all abilities!
The recreational nature of the regular season provides opportunities for skill and character development - on and off course - in addition to plenty of opportunities for fun, friends and family engagement with golf.
*Many facilities elect to offer 17 and under teams and leagues, which will be denoted in the search results.
