The Gauntlet PGA Jr Program is typically 2 days a week. 1.5-2 hour practice on Tuesdays and matches held on Sundays. Match days typically last 2-2.5 hours – tee off at 5:30 and play until dark.
The Gauntlet boasts a robust PGA Jr. League program. We typically have enough participants to form multiple teams, creating a dynamic and engaging environment. Each week, these teams compete against one another right here at The Gauntlet, fostering friendly competition and camaraderie among players.
On Match Days kids are broken out into teams of 2-3 players who will compete agains another group of 2-3 players.
Matches are played in a scramble format. This means that all players on a team hit drives. The best shot is selected, then each player plays from the selected spot, and this process continues until the ball is holed.
The scramble format is key in allowing everyone to hit shots and contribute to the team. PGA Jr. League utilizes match play scoring, which focuses on performance vs. a score-topar as is traditional with golf.
Within a PGA Jr. League game, pairs play in a head-to-head, 9-hole match. Each match is broken into three flags. Each flag is three holes in a row, and each team has the opportunity to earn points at the end of each flag.
