Adult supervision is necessary to oversee junior golfers while they play on the course, hit balls on the range during breaks. Volunteer are not asked to provide any golf instruction, but rather enforce the PNJGA policies set for the safety of its participants. Its helpful understanding the game of golf; however it’s the genuine interest and concern for our participants’ well being and the ability to provide for them a safe, fun atmosphere in which to learn about this game of golf, its rules & etiquette. That is what we are looking for in a volunteer. Please consider responsible teenagers and/or yourself for the PNJGA Volunteer Staff.

Programs hosted by the PNJGA are designed around the F.O.R.E. basic concepts. They are structured to be Fun, Organized, Responsible and Educational. Whenever a program is designed, we ask ourselves, is it:
Fun:
All programs are developed to be fun and entertaining, so students
will enjoy their experience on the golf course.

Many of our programs offer instruction and playing opportunities.
All of our programs have detailed outlines. Every program is
designed to advance the students to one of our next levels.
Responsible:
Safety is our number one concern as we take the responsibility of
your child’s well being very seriously. Whether it’s swinging clubs,
flying golf balls, or first day jitters, our staff are experienced
and well prepared to handle most situations. All staff and
volunteers are pre-screened through the Washington State Patrol
W.A.T.C.H. program.
Educational:
Our instructional programs allow the students to learn various golf
and life skills through fun activities and drills.

The PNJGA is happy to announce a new format for 2008! The Summer League is competitive play for golfers, 17 & under. PNJGA Membership is not required to participate. We hope to attract many young golfers who are looking for more playing opportunities in the summer. Format is Stableford (points). In this competition, players accumulate points on each hole based on the score they make. The lower the score, the higher the points awarded. This is good format because after a Triple Bogey, no further points can be awarded for that hole. Consequently, the player can pick up and move onto the next hole. At the end of each round, points are totaled by the administrative staff and recorded to the players league standings. In each 5-week session, the best 3 of 5 showings will be accumulated to determine League (session) winners. All results from each site and the players standing will be posted nightly on the League’s Website – (It’s not ready yet, but it’ll be linked to the pnjga.com site) Age divisions will be created based on enrollment numbers. A complete schedule of course sites, dates, League rules, group pairings and tee times will be posted in June, approximately 2 weeks before the first matches. All participants will be contacted via email.
-
Site: Expected sites include Carnation, Mt Si, Snoqualmie Falls, Twin Rivers, Tall Chief and/or Cascade Golf Courses. A detailed schedule will be posted soon.
-
Ages: There are no age restrictions at this time. However, participants are expected to demonstrate an appropriate level of maturity & ability. Participants must be able to play & compete fairly, while displaying appropriate golf course etiquette and an understanding of the rules of golf.
