IJGT Partners with Alabama Junior Golf Association

IJGT & AJGO to Build New Opportunities

The International Junior Golf Tour (IJGT) is proud to announce a new partnership with the Alabama Junior Golf Association (AJGO) (www.alabamajuniorgolf.org). As an international tour we are always trying to grow and seek new opportunities. Not only will it generate larger fields but this partnership will also produce stronger competition.

Members of the AJGO will now be able to play a nationally ranked tournament schedule, which will be beneficial to the development of junior golfers trying to reach the next level of their game. Through this partnership, the IJGT will be offering a free membership for the spring 2012 season, as well as 5 exemptions to the Bridgestone Golf Tournament of Champions at Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Florida.

- Top finishers of all IJGT events will generate merit points, which are used to determine the IJGT Player of the Year (one for each division: Boys 15-19 Division, Boys 14 & Under Division, the and Girls Divisions).

- Winners of any IJGT event will receive an invite to the IJGT Bridgestone Golf Tournament of Champions at Grand Cypress Resort in Orlando, Florida.
