PGA Jr. League



Team Not Individual

PGA JLG offers a golf experience like no other. Creating lasting friendships, and developing a sense of comradery, these are just two things you can expect your child to find while playing in the PGA JLG. There is no individual scoring in PGA JLG. The two-player scramble format allows for all participants to feel connected with the team, while accomplishing their own goals on the course. Strong play is rewarded, teammates must work together when playing against their competitors, one poor shot does not lose a hole.

Players of all skill levels are welcome and will contribute to the team’s success. Every player gets to play...in every competition! Each team-vs-team competition in PGA JLG consists of four 9-hole matches. Each 9-hole match is broken down into three 3-hole segments that we call “Flags”. Actual “Flag” stickers are awarded to participants upon capturing a 3-hole point for their team. The stickers are collected by the players throughout the season, and proudly displayed on their PGA JLG bag-tags as a sign of accomplishment.
