The Overall and Runner-Up at the North Florida Section level will earn an exemption into the Boys Junior PGA Championship.  The 2023 event is being held at Hot Springs Country Club (Arlington & Park) in Hot Springs, Arkansas on August 1-4. 

 

CADDIES

All North Florida PGA Junior Events are “walking only” competitions. Players must walk at all times during a stipulated round. Caddies are not permitted during the competition. Participants must carry their own clubs or pull/push carts.
