2021 Colorado PGA Jr. League Official Postseason Returns in 2021

We were excited to have the National Car Rental PGA Jr. League Championship Season back in full swing this year. 2021 was a year to remember. We saw tremendous growth from 2019, which was our last year with an official postseason, and we also added a 17U Section Championship!

2021 PGA JR. LEAGUE SECTION CHAMPIONSHIP

On August 21-22, 2021, we hosted the 2021 Colorado PGA Jr. League Section Championship at the Pinery Country Club. An incredible 317 PGA Jr. League players competed that weekend. We had a total of 34 13U teams and 8 17U teams. 13U teams competed in a 9-hole scramble stroke play with the best three out of four scores counting towards the team total. Half of the 13U teams competed on Saturday, and the remaining teams competed on Sunday. The team with the lowest score between the two days advanced to the National Car Rental PGA Jr. League Regional Championship.

Our 13U team that advanced to the Regional Championship were the All-Stars representing the Mount Oxford League, coached by PGA Associate Tim Radomicki. The Mount Oxford league consists of teams from Boulder Country Club, Ptarmigan Country Club, Omni Interlocken, and The Ranch Country Club. The kids shot an incredible nine-under-par (-9) in the strong, windy conditions that added to the challenge that the Pinery CC had to offer on Saturday.

17U All-Stars competed on Sunday afternoon. 17U teams competed in a 9-hole scramble stroke play with the best two out of three scores counting towards the team total. The 17U Elevation JGA All-Stars, coached by PGA Professional Jason Witczak, finished victorious with a twelve-under-par (-12). Finishing as the Runners-up and also advancing to Regionals were 17U Pioneers All-Stars, led by PGA Professional Brian Sevier and PGA Professional Philip Linares.

A huge thank you to Head Golf Professional Mike Fengler, PGA, and his staff at the Pinery Country Club for hosting us!
