THE TOURNAMENT DIARY


Junior Competitions & Opens 2007

At rookiegolf we get lots of inquiries from junior golfers and parents about Junior Competitions and Tournaments that you can enter. Every season there are hundreds of Junior Events staged across the country – Club competitions, league matches, county competitions, schools’ golf matches, and national tournaments.
Some of these are individual events and others are team events. Many of them are open to anyone to enter – although there may be age and handicap restrictions.
We know from all your emails and messages that many of you don’t know where to get information about the various events or how to find out which events you can enter. We also know that there are a lot of very good junior golfers out there with low handicaps who are keen to find out how they might get a chance to play at county level and hopefully go on to represent their country.

Over the winter we’ll be bringing you information to help you find out more about the various Junior Events and Tournaments that you can take part in, and the people who can help you.


Club Junior Organisers.
Most golf clubs have a Junior Organiser who will assist with junior league matches against other clubs, and help with junior competitions within his or her home club. Junior Organisers (or Junior Convenors as they are known in Scotland) are usually volunteers – people who give up their valuable time to support and help junior golfers. Often the Junior Organiser is someone who does this for a number of years at the club, but, in some cases the person changes every year. One of the ways in which a Junior Organiser will help boys and girls to progress is encouraging them to play in County Competitions. This is the first stage of getting recognised by the County. The club’s professional if he is keen on encouraging juniors will help with the Junior Organiser as they will have played junior golf in their amateur days.

Your first step is to talk with your Junior Organiser and enter as many of your home club competitions as you can, also competitions and events against other clubs and then to play in county events.

County Junior Organisers.
Every County has a Junior Organiser and his address can be found in the English Golf Union Handbook. A copy of this handbook should be in every golf club. If you are unable to find the address or telephone number just ask your Junior Club Organiser or your Club Secretary. The County Junior Organiser should be able to help you with information about the various junior National Competitions or Championships. His or her role is to keep a record of every up and coming player in the County.


We’ll bring you more information soon about events in Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Also, about how girls are selected to play for their county and country.

We’ll add information about the dates of national tournaments and events for juniors as soon as these are available.
