Junior Golf, The official Junior golf site of the USGA, The PGA Tour, The PGA of America, The LPGA, NGCOA,The GCSAA, and the World Golf Foundation.
Description
In November, 2000, senior members of the golf industry gathered as part of a program called GOLF 20/20: Vision for the Future. The primary purpose of GOLF 20/20 is to ensure the future of the game by implementing programs that will actively increase participation and interest.
One of the major areas identified, of course, was junior golf. Rather than create another new program, it was decided to first gather information on the extent of junior golf in America, and to establish a forum for communication. The first phase of that effort is juniorlinks.com, which contains an ever-growing database of junior programs in this country, and will ultimately provide a vehicle for communication for junior golfers, their parents, and junior program administrators. Responsibility for management of the content of juniorlinks.com has been assumed by the USGA Foundation.
GOLF 20/20 is managed by the World Golf Foundation, which also oversees the World Golf Hall of Fame in St. Augustine, FL, and The First Tee, a program designed to create alternative facilities that provide access to golf for kids who would not otherwise have that opportunity. All of these initiatives are embraced by the entire golf community, working in collaboration.
