CAROLINA GOLF ASSOCIATION (TYGA) ANNOUCES NEW POINT SYSTEM
11/2/10 - 10:23 PM

 

 

 

ATLANTIC COAST JUNIOR TOUR is excited to be apart of the New Carolina Golf Association (TYGA) junior ranking release. We would like thank Jason Cox for all he does  for junior golf and keeping a ranking system for our state and surrounding area. We have been an advocate of the reduction in the minimum in both the Boys and Girls to have a ranked tournament. We have always believed that if you tee up in competition and from a good yardage that every tournament should be ranked. We have been apart of junior golf for nineteen years and feel that we have seen some very good tournament not ranked because of size of the field. Now We believe we are close to the number that makes it fare across the board.

 

What does this mean for me as a junior golfer? It will allow you to play a schedule closer to home and keep the cost of junior golf reasonable for you and your family. It allows you as junior to be able to play more tournaments in a closer vicinity to your home and still reach out and go to those tournaments out of state.

 

The new ranking system now Ranks tournaments in surrounding states (South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Virginia). So play all those local tournaments at the low cost of Travel then vacation in the adjoining states with the AAU WORLD GOLF TOUR www.aaujrgolftour.com . 

This will  take affect on January 1, 2011.

 

Changes to TYGA rankings system for 2011.

 

1. Reduce the event minimum amount of boys from 25 to 15 playing the longest set of tees to be used for rankings.

 

1. Reduce to event minimum amount of girls from 8 to 6 playing the longest set of tee to be used for rankings.

 

1. Any junior event in NC or an adjacent state to NC (VA, GA, SC and TN) will be used for rankings if they meet the requirements as set fourth by TYGA.

 

1. 13 and under aged players can not be added to the older aged divisions to reach the minimum amount of players for an event to be used for the rankings.

Recommendations:

                                    Boys 12-13

1. Course set up should be challenging, yet fair to the contestants.
2. Course should be marked before play (hazards, out of bounds, ground under repair, etc.)
3. A pace of play policy should be announced and then enforced during play.
