FOUNDING
PARTNERS
The Nebraska Golf Association and the Nebraska PGA joined forces
in 2009 to bring young golfers the state's premier junior golf organization
- the Nebraska Junior Golf Tour (NJGT). The NJGT annually offers
nearly 40 competitive golf events for junior golfers beginning at
the age of seven continuing through the summer following a golfer's
graduation from high school. The series of competitions will include
tournaments for every level of golfer including premier tournaments
for the more accomplished player.
THE
NEBRASKA GOLF ASSOCIATION
The
Nebraska Golf Association is a nonprofit organization that serves
as the governing body for amateur golf in Nebraska. Founded in 1966,
the NGA is dedicated to promoting the game of golf and serving its

the Nebraska region.
The Nebraska
Section PGA encompasses the entire State of Nebraska, western fifth
