Pga Junior League
At Persimmon Country Club, we believe that juniors collaborating to learn the game of golf is one of the most effective ways to cultivate a robust community of golfers and lifelong enthusiasts of the sport. We are thrilled to introduce our PGA Junior League, which offers a supportive environment and framework for our juniors to flourish together. Our Spring, Summer, And Fall league will be competing against themselves as they learn to go low at the course, starting from 25 yards. Each practice will consist of learning some of life’s core values through the game of golf. Our hope is to help your junior golfer learn the love of the game and make new friends on the course. We would hope that by the end of even just one season, that our juniors will understand the course in a new way.
The Persimmon Elite team?
The PGA Junior League offers junior golfers across America the chance to engage in fun, competitive play within organized leagues. At Persimmon C.C., our Elite teams will face off against neighboring golf clubs, with matches hosted at each facility. Players 13 and under, promoting a team-focused and enjoyable environment.
Each match features two players from each team participating in a scramble format, vying for flags. Flags are awarded every three holes to the team that secures the most wins. In the case of ties, both teams receive half a flag each. The team that gathers the most flags by season's end will be crowned the champion.
Coaches will select an all-star team at the season's conclusion, highlighting standout players from the league. This elite team will then compete in an elimination format for a shot at qualifying for nationals, alongside one nominated coach. While participation in the all-star experience is optional, it offers a unique opportunity for selected players.
Practice schedules may differ among teams, but at Persimmon C.C., we plan to hold weekly practice sessions on Wednesday late afternoons for 1.5 hours, beginning in mid-May and continuing through late July. Matches will typically take place on Sunday evenings, both at Persimmon C.C. and at various participating clubs, ensuring an exciting season filled with camaraderie and competitive spirit.
