NorthStar Golf Club is hosting a PGA Jr. League in-house league that will be open to the first 48 members (or relatives, such as grandchildren, of members) to register. The goal of the program is to promote a fun, team atmosphere that is welcoming to beginners, while also providing opportunities for players to compete in competitive situations such as limited interclub matches and all-star postseason appearances. 

Practice sessions will be designed to best fit players according to their ages. Players ages 9 years and younger will be assigned to the 5:30-6:30pm group, while players ages 10 years and older will be assigned to the 7:00-8:00pm group. Older players will work through more structured fundamental drills designed to prepare them for competition, while younger player practices will feature more games to help players engage and have fun.

League Schedule:

Practices: Wednesday, 5/28; Wednesday, 6/4; Wednesday, 6/18; Wednesday, 7/16
Matches: Wednesday, 6/11; Wednesday, 6/25; Wednesday, 7/9; Wednesday, 7/23
Rain Date: Wednesday, 7/30

In addition to the scheduled practices and in-house matches above, we are working to set up home-and-away series with other area clubs that would give each player two more playing opportunities.
