PGA JR LEAGUE-YORK CC

EVENT SCHEDULE TO BE ANNOUNCED MARCH 1st....

PGA Jr. League is a fun opportunity for both boys and girls to learn how to play the golf course through a low pressure 2-person best shot format. We look forward to an exciting year of team matches and development of student's course etiquette knowledge, while also learning through many situations and strategy experiences on the course.

Students age 7 through age 13 are eligible to participate (students must not turn 14 before August 1st, 2026). For true beginners, having your student participate in our youth golf clinics week would be very beneficial to pair along with PGA Jr League, as clinics week is our best introduction to all the swing fundamentals.


Registration Fees: The season cost per student is $165.00 and includes two jerseys, a hat, a drawstring bag, accessories, and potential postseason All-Star opportunity.


Deadline Notice: The deadline to register is April 30th, to ensure jerseys and accessories arrive in time for the start of season.


Along with six matches on the course, we have scheduled three practices/etiquette review sessions as well to benefit the students!

It is not a problem at all if your student cannot attend some matches and/or practices.
