Junior Golf Alliance of Colorado (JGAC) founding partners, The Colorado Golf Association (CGA) and Colorado Section of the PGA (CPGA), announced plans to serve junior golfers independently beginning in 2022. After six successful years, the JGAC saw significant growth in membership and demand for junior golf playing opportunities from aspiring young golfers throughout Colorado. To ensure the needs of all junior golfers in Colorado are adequately met in 2022 and beyond, both organizations will refine their focus and tailor programs to the specific needs of all junior golfers within their respective organizations.
Beginning in 2022, the CPGA will be offering a schedule of junior golf tournaments releasing on February 25. Under the Youth Pillar of the Colorado PGA REACH Foundation, the CPGA will continue to support national initiatives including Drive, Chip & Putt alongside Augusta National Golf Club; and PGA Jr. League, which provides an onramp to golf for juniors beginning their journey. The CPGA will also remain the host of the prestigious Colorado Junior PGA Championship and bring back the Aurora Junior Championship.
The CGA will administer the nationally acclaimed Youth on Course program, which creates access to golf for kids 18 and under at a subsidized rate. Additionally, the CGA will be conducting its long-standing, historic State Junior Championships and qualifiers in appropriate age categories in a modern and elevated way at CommonGround Golf Course—the home of the CGA.
Over the past six years, the Junior Golf Alliance of Colorado was run by a combined staff from both the Colorado PGA and the Colorado Golf Association. We will continue to support junior golf with only the same number of staff that the Colorado PGA has provided in previous years. The Colorado PGA is committed to conducting our events to a high standard and in doing so, we have condensed the schedule to be more manageable for an overall smaller staff.
