Junior Elite programs include:
> Competition Play Days!
The Elite Junior Academy is proud to be the meeting place for some of the area’s top performing junior golfers. At the EJA we believe in developing the whole person—the athlete, the student, the player, and the young adult. Competition play days give the players an opportunity to create new relationships while working hard at achieving their goals. Building leadership skills, friendships, and self-confidence are an integral part of our equation! Through our supportive and competitive environment, students develop the critical qualities of commitment, goal setting, and a consistent work ethic to best impact their academics, golf, and future accomplishments.
> March Madness & Champions Cup!
A season long competition where players qualify with scores accumulated during the competition days as 9-holes rounds, and the top 4 scores will count as that player’s 36-hole qualifying score…the more you play the more opportunity to qualify! The Championship will pair the top 8 qualifiers from two divisions for a match play bracketed event!
> Junior Ryder Cup;
