GreatLIFE Junior Tour

About the Tour

Mission Statement: 
The mission of the GreatLIFE Jr. Tour is to enrich the lives of junior golfers by helping build relationships that will last a lifetime while enjoying the wonderful game of golf.  

Purpose: 
The purpose of the GreatLIFE Jr. Tour is to provide affordable playing opportunities for kids to play some competitive golf.

Eligibility:
All junior golfers ages 18 – under are eligible to play.  The field size is limited to the first 93 golfers to sign up. All golfers should be able to get around the golf course without unduly delaying play and with minimal supervision.  They should be able to post a score of double par or less on most of the holes. 

Format: 
All tournaments are 18-hole stroke play events except for the 10 – Under division.  This division will play 9 holes only. All play is in twosomes and threesomes to improve the pace of play.  The goal is to get all players finished in 4 hours or less. Once an age division is finished we will hold the awards ceremonies for that division. We understand the importance of your time and get the results and prizes out in a timely manner.  

Events: 
We will have a total of 14 events that are open to any player that is a member of the GreatLIFE Jr Tour. 

Divisions: 
Golfers will play in the age group that they are eligible for that day of the tournament.  Any golfers wanting to play up a division will be at the discretion of the committee.  New this year we will have a 10 – Under age division that will play 9 holes only.  They will play from a forward tee with Par 3’s around 50 yards, Par 4’s around 100 yards and Par 5’s around 150 yards.

The age groups are as follows: 
Ages 10 – Under (9-Holes) NEW!!!
Ages 11-12
Ages 13 – 15
Ages 16 – 18

Fees: 
The membership fee is $20, which includes a GHIN handicap.  GreatLIFE members will pay $20 per event and Non-GreatLIFE members will pay $30 per event.  All tournament fees include green fees, range balls and lunch after play.

Prizes: 
All divisions will win awards for each event.  We will hand out medals and gift certificates to any of our GreatLIFE Pro Shops for the top three places in each division.

GreatLIFE JR. CUP:  
The GreatLIFE Jr. Cup is similar to the FedEX Cup on the PGA Tour.  Players will receive points based on how they finish in each tournament. The leading point winner in each age division (boys and girls) will be declared the GreatLIFE Jr. Cup Champion for that division.
