About This Event
The Indiana Junior PGA Championship is the Indiana PGA Section's premier junior stroke play event, open to boys who meet section residency requirements. It serves as a direct qualifier for the national Junior PGA Championship, one of the most recognized events on the junior golf calendar. Earning your spot here means competing against the best junior players in Indiana with a real path to a national stage.
What Advancing Means
The section champion earns an automatic invitation to the Junior PGA Championship at Fields Ranch in Frisco, TX, July 28–31, 2026 — the 50th anniversary of a national championship whose past winners include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, and Justin Thomas. That is a meaningful credential that follows a player's name for the rest of his junior and college career.
Coach's Take
If your son is serious about junior golf in Indiana, this is the event that puts him on the map — section champions get noticed, and a trip to the national Junior PGA is the kind of opportunity that doesn't come around every year.
