Mission Statement                                                                           

The VCJGA is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization established to develop boys and girls golf skills and character by providing quality competitive golf events that merit integrity and honor the traditions of the game of golf.

Who Started It                                                                      

Mike Andonian Sr., a math teacher and golf coach at Ventura High School founded the VCJGA in 1967 - For 25 years each summer, he conducted a dozen summer tournaments. 

What We Are About                                                                    

The VCJGA is one of California's finest Junior Golf Programs operating year-round.  Former VCJGA members include: U.S. Open & PGA Tour Champion Corey Pavin; PGA Tour Champion Paul Stankowski; PGA Tour member Charlie Wi; LPGA Tour Champion Dana Dormann and LPGA Tour member Beth Allen; as well as many other Nationwide Tour players and PGA and LPGA of America Professionals.  

The VCJGA also has a history of giving by helping golfers with financial assistance to play on the VCJGA Tour.  Education was very important to our founder, Mike Andonian, Sr. He also founded the VCJGA scholarship fund which is given to deserving VCJGA members upon high school graduation.

Our tour has had a tradition of being very affordable.  Our summer series is played during weekdays and gives us the opportunity to play some of the private clubs as well as quality courses at a much lower cost.  During the spring and fall school sessions , we play only one weekend per month as this prime time will cost more.
