The annual Ricki Rarick Junior Golf Program includes junior golfers of all skill levels ages 6 through 18 and/or through the summer after graduating high school.
Most of the tournaments are hosted on Mondays and Tuesdays in June and July. The top six individuals in each division will be invited to the tournament of champions in July.
A volunteer scorekeeper is sent out with each 12 and younger group. (Parents may not volunteer in the same group as their child). Ricki Rarick Junior Golf continues the more than 67-year tradition of not allowing spectators. Spectators/parents are not allowed on the golf course or in the scoring area, except those volunteers acting in an official capacity.
