Kids Golf "Drive, Pitch & Putt"

"The goal of the National Association of Junior Golfers is to identify ways for junior golf program directors to become heroes in the eyes of children and parents. The Kids Golf 'Drive, Pitch & Putt' competition accomplishes this goal."

Executive Director

"Over the past ten years, I've seen numerous ideas that are intended
to enhance junior golf programs. It is difficult to find an activity that is enjoyable for the kids and serves as an evaluation tool for the program director. The Kids Golf 'Drive, Pitch & Putt' competition achieves both of these objectives."

"Tiger Woods is attracting kids to golf in record numbers, and the golf industry now faces a real challenge! These kids are the future of golf and our junior golf programs need to be ready to accommodate them, and teach them to enjoy the game, hopefully for the rest of their lives.

The Kids Golf 'Drive, Pitch & Putt' program offers junior golf programs an exciting new way to make golf more fun for kids, and the golf industry another way to cope with Tigermania!"
