The mission of the Minnesota PGA Junior Golf is to provide playing opportunities for the advanced, intermediate, and beginning golfer ages 7-19. Whether your child is just getting started with their golf journey or wants to play more competitive golf to prepare for the high school or collegiate level, we have a program for you.
All proceeds raised through license plate sales help support programs by focusing on player development and access to the game of golf in the state of Minnesota. The Minnesota PGA and Minnesota Golf Association work together to award local programs and PGA Professionals with funding to provide instruction, education, access to golf equipment and playing opportunities throughout the state.
