TOURNAMENT COMPETITION
An integral part of BGGA’s golf training methodology is a strong focus on
tournament competition. BGGA students spend weekends during the school
year gaining valuable experience playing in nationally ranked events across the
country. Students compete in many tournaments on the International Junior
Golf Tour (IJGT) and Hurricane Junior Golf Tour (HJGT) as well as in American
Junior Golf Association (AJGA) and other marquee junior golf events. All IJGT
events are nationally ranked by Golfweek and Junior Golf Scoreboard. With
over 40 hosted events, IJGT provides an excellent platform for juniors to increase
their tournament results and acquire the recognition that college coaches
will notice.
With BGGA’s partnership with Sir Nick Faldo and Faldo Series, BGGA
students now have the opportunity to play in Faldo Series America. The winner
of the U.S. Grand Final qualifies for Faldo Series Europe Grand Final.
FALDO SERIES PARTNERSHIP
BGGA and IJGT partner with Faldo Series
BGGA student-athletes benefit from BGGA’s relationship with Sir Nick Faldo and
his global junior development effort, Faldo Series, which hosts events in Europe,
Asia, Australia, New Zealand and South America. Starting in 2017, Faldo Series
now partners with BGGA and IJGT to bring opportunities for junior golfers in
the United States to compete in Faldo Series events.
BGGA organizes opportunities for junior golfers to compete in a series of first-
class tournaments on some of the most prestigious golf courses in the world.
By partnering with some of the best junior tours in the country, we ensure our
students are getting the best tournament experience to prepare them for
competition at the next level.
