Event Information
Starting Times and What to Expect
We are looking forward to having you participate in our local qualifier! A few things to note:
- The deadline for each event is five days prior at 4pm CT.
- Once the deadline has passed, the guardian whom completed the registration will receive an email with starting time information. (Email comes from Erika Pirkl, PGA).
- The competition consists of 9 total shots - so it takes about 15-20 minutes.
- Because we have eight different divisions, we follow this order: Boys 7-9, Girls 7-9, Boys 10-11, Girls 10-11, Boys 12-13, Girls 12-13, Boys 14-15, and finish with Girls 14-15. That way, each participant can leave once his/her age and gender division is finished.
- We do an awards ceremony after each age/gender group is finished.
- We award 1st, 2nd and 3rd place in each skill and overall.
- The top 3 overall point-earners move on to the Sub-Regional.
- Start times are final - no exceptions.
