2026/27 SEASON DIVISION BREAKDOWN

Elementary Division:
11U BOYS & GIRLS (9 HOLES) - caddies optional
Age Eligibility to compete in a division will be based on the juniors age on Sept 1, 2026. If a junior is 13 years old on Sept 1st they can play in the 13U division for the entire season. If a junior wants to play up in division, they can also do that as well. Please contact Tournament Director Zack King at zack@vcjga.com if you are not in the age division that you wish to be in. Please check your profiles before registering for your next event.
Elementary Division:
Our youngest elementary age division will be the combined Boys & Girls 11 & Under division. This division will continue to play 9 holes. We have lowered the entry into the tour to 7 years of age, and we will now allow caddies to be optional for this division to assist with keeping up with the demanding pace of play and scoring. Caddies will not be allowed on the greens to assist with putting. We have also implemented a max 10 rule for this division. the 11 & Under division is designed a fun way to get into tournament golf.
Middle School Divisions:
Once your junior reaches middle school, the Boys 13U division transitions primarily to 36-hole tournaments, helping prepare players for high school, advanced junior competition, and earn national ranking points..
For Girls 13U, we have redesigned the division to better support newer tournament players by focusing on confidence, skill development, and long-term growth. This season, Girls 13U competitors will play 9- and 18-hole, one-day events. If your junior golfer is ready to compete at a higher level over 36 holes, we encourage her to play up in the Girls 18U division. Players in that division will typically compete from the forward tees while continuing to develop their competitive experience.
​
-
Boys 13U: Players are expected to push or carry their own golf bags.
-
Girls 13U: An optional caddie is permitted throughout the season.
​​
High School Divisions:
The final step in our program is our Championship Division. The Championship division will compete in a two-day 36-hole format for national ranking points, a spot on the North South Cup Team, multi-day events to put on your golf resumes, and Player of the Year honors. It is our goal to help our members grow to reach the next level. We want and encourage them to play in larger organization events such as the Toyota Tour Cup, USGA events, and AJGA's. The VCJGA is a development and preparation tour for the next level of competition. We want to support our members by preparing them for that stage and nothing prepares golfers for tournament golf like tournament golf.
PLAYER OF THE YEAR
In the new season the POY will be determined by a players top 6 highest point finishes. We understand that our members play in other events, go on vacation, or have family obligations and might be unable to participate in all the events during the season. We do not want to handicap a junior’s chances to be honored as the Player of the Year.
