The Northwest Georgia Junior Golf Association,
in coordination with the GRPA 5th District
Recreation Departments, has been formed. This
Association was formed to provide opportunities
for young golfers to improve their golf skills
playing by in competitive golf tournaments. The
association is open to all junior male and
female golfers ages 10 years to seniors (18
years of age) in high school in the Northwest
Georgia area.
The NWGA Jr. Golf Association is holding a Fall
Series of Junior Golf Tournaments. These
tournaments will be held on Saturday afternoons
during the fall at different courses throughout
the GRPA 5th District which includes most
counties in Northwest Georgia. Junior male and
female golfers will be divided into age groups
and the age groups the golfer will compete in
will be determined by golfer age at the time of
the tournament. All competition will comply with
the rules set forth by the United States Golf
Association (USGA).

There are a
limited number tee times available and they want
to have as many golfers as possible play. In an
effort to make things easier for everyone,
golfers will be allowed to pre-register for the
tournaments (below). Pay when you sign in
the day of the tournament. The golfers that
pre-register will be able to get their tee times
by Friday before the tournament. Of course,
golfers can register on the day of the
tournament as well.
