About This Event
The North Florida Junior PGA Championship is the section's premier two-day stroke play event, open to both boys and girls competing for one of junior golf's most meaningful titles. Winning here isn't just a trophy — it's an automatic invitation to compete at the national level against the best junior golfers in the country. For families investing in a junior's competitive development, this is exactly the kind of high-stakes, well-run event that belongs on the schedule.
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 edition of a national championship whose past winners include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and Lexi Thompson. That is the stage this title puts your junior on.
Coach's Take
If your junior is serious about taking their game to the next level, this is one of the few events where a single round can open a door to a national championship — that combination of high competition and real stakes is exactly what accelerates development.
