“Our kids went out and played well today,” said Nobles. “After narrowly missing qualifying for the Section Championship in 2021, it’s great to see our juniors hard work this year pay off and we’re excited to represent the Southern Texas PGA at the PGA Jr. League Regional.”
This year’s program in Southern Texas featured over 1,525 juniors at 59 facilities taught by 74 PGA Professionals and Associates. The event was the culmination of the season with four teams competing in a Match Play format for the Championship.
In the morning matches, the WindRose 1 All-Star Team played High Meadow Ranch All-Star Team. Both teams earned a spot via the East Qualifier featuring 16 All-Star teams. The semifinal match was extremely close, with WindRose claiming the victory, 7-5.
In the afternoon Championship match at the Lakes Course at Hyatt Hill Country Golf Club, WindRose faced off against Barton Creek Golf Academy, who won the other morning semifinal Match over the Fair Oaks Ranchers.
