Be A Game Changer
An Update Regarding COVID-19 and the 2020 Postseason
PGA Jr. League is targeting June 1 as the earliest date to allow local league play to resume, provided that the resumption of activities shall only be allowed in localities that are currently in Phase II of the Opening Up America Again guidelines.
Due to the ever-increasing risks associate with the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, the 2020 PGA Jr. League postseason has been cancelled – this includes Section Championships, Regional Championships and the National Championship. We recognize these events create fun, unique, and life-lasting memories for participating players. There are a number of reasons for making this difficult decision, including:
- It prioritizes health by not hosting any events requiring air travel.
- With counties and states having different timelines for reaching Phase II, it maximizes flexibility for local league schedules throughout 2020.
- It creates clarity going into the season about our focus on local league play.
