Coach Testimonials
I LOVE PGA Jr League. In our 12th year hosting a single session junior league program, this is our first time bringing any team to Regional Championships in Utah. This year, we had 205 participants in our summer jr league season hosting 7 weeks of games around the Greater Seattle area. Each team played 6 games and received 2 practices before the season kicked off. With 205 players and limited course access, we are thankful to our partnering courses for providing 5pm or later tee times on Sunday evenings throughout the summer.
I love bringing our teams and players to All Star qualifiers and providing the exceptional memories for these players. We brought 8 teams split between 13u and 17u with one team from each league moving on to the next round. I think the All Star experience is unmatched at the local levels, aside from the fun, optional playdays. The Meadowpark Golf Course team in Tacoma, WA and our Player Engagement Consultant, Patrick Oropallo, make the post season for our players a true experience.
I love the teamwork aspect of PGA Jr League, and seeing players step on the golf course for the first time. Seeing players work together, displaying sportsmanship, respect and integrity on the golf course is unmatched. Thank you!
It is a great program for any skill level. It introduces a new format to the kids that they normally don’t play in other Jr. golf tournaments.
I like that all levels can participate in the same program
Watching the kids and coaches work together on a team.
Bringing families together!
The kids are on the course and not on the driving range.
They enjoy the uniforms and the low stress as they learn to compete.
Keeping the environment socially competitive. The programs works best for introducing golf to a wide swath of juniors. Those seeking more competitive environments can/should seek other alternatives.
Team bonding and family support at events
I enjoy watching the kids improve as the season progresses. I think the family support of our parents is such a positive part of the experience for the,players.
I love the kids who want to participate and learn!
This program is one of the best for playing matches with other kids.
Everything, its the parents playing too.
kids get excited about golf.
That the kids love it
Soft landing for kids that are just “getting their feet wet” in competition.
It is the best program the PGA runs! The only downfall is you restrict programs to be run by PGA members only. Garbage
It brings families together. We have an in house league and work player development.
The families are there are play days and help out. Just finished our 6th year with 24 juniors.
PGAJRLG is fantastic for any junior golfer, especially the beginners. It’s super low key with a lot of instruction. We had 50+ in our league this year and most of them were beginners.
Great way for our Junior golfers to compete in a team environment to represent our club.
It provides a well known avenue to grow your junior program while giving your student opportunities to play other courses with you present.
I like the kids and how they play together with different partners. They are doing their best and celebrate their successes far more than they get frustrated with things that don’t go so well.
I like the family support provided during the games or after practices.
I like the challenge of preparing practices that are fun and prepare the kids for playing.
It is the future of the game!
The way it brings families together. We have a lot of parent involvement at our club.
We also have chosen to be in house. We feel the kids get more out of the program. We have had a younger group over the years.
I think pga junior league is awesome.
Just watching the kids play and compete
Is so much fun to watch.
I have my older kids mentor the younger kids
Early in the season to make them comfortable.
Is a great entry program for junior golfers!
Brought extended families out to discover the benefits of golf!
Format selective shot, no pressure on players able to substitute players and the fact that young people are encouraged to participate
Giving kids a chance to meet new people and ease them into tournament golf in a fun format
Teamwork, camaraderie, and the chance for kids to play different golf courses in a fun, competitive format!
Working with kids and watching them enjoy the game
The team vs team approach. The social environment that we make is second to none.
That it is the entry level for competitive golf, but in a team setting
