TOURNAMENT + COMPETITION
An integral part of IJGA’s golf training methodology is a strong focus on tournament
competition. IJGA 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 IJGA’s partnership with Sir Nick Faldo and Faldo Series, IJGA students now have the
opportunity to play in Faldo Series America. The winner of the U.S. Grand Final qualifies for
Faldo Series Asian Grand Final.
FALDO SERIES/PARTNERSHIP
IJGA and IJGT partner with Faldo Series
IJGA student-athletes benefit from IJGA’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
IJGA and IJGT to bring opportunities for junior golfers in the United States to compete in
the Faldo Series. IJGA 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.
