July 30 and 31, 2018


Hard to believe it’s the end of the 2017-2018 Tournament season already. Man time has flown by! I guess if the ole adage (time fly’s when you’re having fun) is correct we had a lot of fun along the way. I know I did and the NFJG TOUR Staff totally agrees that this year was a great deal of fun filled with outstanding golf on outstanding golf courses, from familiar faces of dedicated NFJG TOUR supporters. This season brought out many new faces from referrals of those so dedicated to NFJG TOUR to grow the junior program here in our own back yard.

In the past five years we’ve grown together quite a bit and we’ve turned the heads of those organizations interested to figure out how we do what we do. You know what? The answer is simple. We do what we do because we truly care and we have dedicated PGA, LPGA and other outstanding staff who are dedicated to growing the game for our kids, here in the Greater Jacksonville arena. I’ve said it a hundred times. We’re blessed with great parents from all walks of life and we have loving partnerships who CARE and provide needed dollars! We’re diversified and we believe in inclusion for all. Our program builds for the future and we offer more opportunity to play higher level golf than any other organization I know of at our level and that’s how it should be while we encourage our members to play on this outstanding local junior tour to make it BIGGER and BETTER every year. 

When you look at the “Incentives Program” list on the website it gives you the general idea of our goal to provide junior golf opportunity at a low cost and at great courses. The Staff’s greatest satisfaction is to watch our junior players grow, mature and navigate their way to top of the charts. My staff and I routinely talk about those who have passed through the ranks of the NFJG TOUR and WOW are there some impressive players and so many more to be added to the list. We read and hear about them all the time and it’s truly an energetic feeling to know that they once played on the NFJF TOUR and that we had something to do with their direction in golf and in life. So, to our 15 players who are headed to the college ranks we wish you all the best and know that we will be watching you as you grow your future and every once in a while your name will come up in our conversations.

Sweet deal! ……..
