Junior PGA
Our Junior PGA program provides young golfers with the opportunity to learn the fundamentals of golf while emphasizing sportsmanship, teamwork, and leadership. Participants receive professional instruction, engage in friendly competitions, and gain the confidence to excel both on and off the course.
As part of the nation-wide PGA Junior League competition program, we compete against other Junior PGA teams from across New England. In matches, players compete in a 2-person scramble format: both players hit every shot, decide which ball is in a better position, and play their next shot from there. This allows young players to play every shot in 9-hole rounds of golf, while being more forgiving of the stray shots and mishits that are part of learning to play golf. It also teaches the life skills of teamwork and persistence alongside the golf tournament essentials of course management, club selection, and strategy.
Registration Information
Registration for Junior PGA is completed through the PGA Jr. League website and is divided into two age groups: 13U (players aged 13 and under) and 17U (players aged 14-17). The initial cost of registration includes a $120 annual PGA Jr. League membership.
LPGA*USGA Girls Golf
Welcome to the LPGA*USGA Girls Golf – Newport, R.I. Chapter!
We are Rhode Island’s only golf program developed specifically for girls ages 5-16. The LPGA*USGA Girls Golf program has successfully engaged ONE MILLION GIRLS in the sport of golf; now we’re striving to reach #OneMillionMORE! Our guiding principles are the 5 E’s of Girls Golf, which allow us to:
Engage girls with positive female role models and mentors.
Exercise girls’ minds and bodies, helping them unlock their full potential.
Energize girls with a passion for the game of golf.
Enrich girls’ lives by expanding their minds and horizons.
Empower girls with confidence and inspire them to dream BIG!
What We Do
We provide instruction and opportunities for friendly competition in an accessible, welcoming environment for girls of all skill levels and abilities. During our weekly practice, we focus in on golf essentials, but our main goal is to keep golf FUN! Our practice facilities at the Newport YMCA and Green Valley Country Club facilitate both individualized instruction and group activities! Some of our favorite games are putting tic-tac-toe, long drive contests, and closest-to-the-pin chipping.
Competition Opportunities
Girls Golf program participants have multiple opportunities throughout the year to compete in different formats.
- Drive, Chip, and Putt: We encourage all of our junior golfers to participate in the nation-wide Drive, Chip, and Putt contest! This unique competition format tests essential golf skills. Participants earn points separately in the drive, chip, and putt categories, and scoring is separated by age group. With opportunities to advance through our local qualifier to sub-regional, regional, and eventually a televised national competition, the Drive, Chip, and Putt program is accessible to everyone from beginner golfers to experienced competition players.
- Team Matches: As one chapter in a network of over 500 Girls Golf sites, we have a wide pool of competitors for team-based matches. Similar to the Junior PGA match format, participants will compete in 2-person teams and be matched against a pair of players of a similar age and experience level.
- Individual Tournaments: As our players gain more experience with on-course play and competition golf, we will advertise opportunities for players to compete in local tournaments through the RI Golf Association and New England PGA Junior Tour.
