Twelve facilities have been named host sites of the 2019 PGA Jr. League Regionals presented by National Car Rental, which will take place throughout September.
At each of these competitions, four co-ed All-Star teams of junior golfers ages 13 and under (48 in total) will compete to earn one of 12 spots in the 2019 PGA Jr. League Championship presented by National Car Rental, held Oct. 11-14, at Grayhawk Golf Club in Scottsdale, Arizona.
“From first-hand experience as a PGA Jr. League Coach, the fun and competitive team atmosphere of the PGA Jr. League Postseason presented by National Car Rental is so exciting to watch,” said PGA President Suzy Whaley, PGA/LPGA. “To host the Regional competitions at 12 PGA facilities only adds to the unique experience. PGA Jr. League is an outlet for girls and boys to learn and enjoy a lifetime sport, and we’re proud of the PGA and LPGA Professionals who are leading the charge.”

PGA Jr. League brings boys and girls together to learn and play golf on co-ed teams with expert coaching from PGA and LPGA Professionals. Kids wear numbered jerseys and play on teams with friends, competing in a two-person scramble format that builds confidence and encourages sportsmanship.
Following the Spring/Summer Season, 10-player All-Star teams are formed from a combination of players in each league. These teams move through Section Championships in August to earn a spot at one of 12 Regionals held across the country in September. Twelve Regional champions advance to the PGA Jr. League Championship presented by National Car Rental, which has been held at Grayhawk Golf Club since 2016, and will stay through 2022.
While the focus of PGA Jr. League is primarily on the developmental nature of its Spring/Summer and Fall Recreational Seasons, the PGA Jr. League Postseason presented by National Car Rental presents competitive golfers a fun and aspirational finish to Spring/Summer Season play.
PGA Jr. League is the flagship youth pillar program of the PGA of America’s 501 (c)(3) foundation, PGA REACH, with the goal of making the program accessible to all interested kids in the United States and around the world.
