About This Event
The Northern Texas Junior PGA Championship is the section's premier boys stroke play championship, open to junior golfers who hold an active Northern Texas PGA Section Junior Tour membership. Finishing at the top of this field is one of the most meaningful results a junior golfer in North Texas can put on his resume. The section champion earns an automatic invitation to compete at the national Junior PGA Championship, one of the most recognized junior majors in the country.
What Advancing Means
The Northern Texas section champion earns an automatic invitation to the 50th Junior PGA Championship at Fields Ranch in Frisco, TX, July 28–31, 2026 — a national stage where past champions include Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Jordan Spieth, Justin Thomas, and Lexi Thompson. Competing at that level, on a nationally recognized venue in your home state, is a rare opportunity that carries real weight with college coaches and recruiting services.
Coach's Take
If your son is serious about junior golf in North Texas, this is the event that separates players who compete from players who compete for something — the section title is a direct ticket to a national championship and a credential that follows him through the recruiting process.
