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.
A joint initiative founded in 2013 by the Masters Tournament, USGA and The PGA of America, Drive, Chip & Putt is a free, nationwide junior golf development competition aimed at growing the game by focusing on the three fundamental skills employed in golf for boys and girls ages 7-15.

At its core, PGA Jr. League is a group of local golf teams who play a series of games against each other, utilizing a nurturing and social scramble format. PGA and LPGA Professionals exclusively serve as Captains and are responsible for creating a welcoming environment for all that encourages skill and character development.

The ‘Sota Series is comprised of four unique “tours,” based on age and skill level. The key to the 'Sota Series is flexible scheduling options. Each year we offer over 180 individual events, allowing your child to play in as little or as many events as you'd like.
