Marquette
County Junior Golf Association
The
Marquette County Junior Golf Association (MCJGA) is dedicated
to the development of young men and women, ages 8-18, through
competitive junior golf.
PURPOSE
The purpose of the MCJGA is to provide positive life experiences
for junior golfers through competitive golf while setting
high standards to preserve the integrity and traditions of
the game.
GOAL
Our goal is to develop character through the structure and
the rules of the game (golf is the only sport where participants
call penalties on themselves). Golf also teaches other life
skills like patience, good sportsmanship and being able to
focus on the task at hand. We also hope that we are exposing
our youth to a leisure activity that they can enjoy, no matter
what their ability level might be, for the rest of their life.
