Player Membership / Registration

2008 Tour Membership

2008 Membership cost is $75. The Midwest's Top50jrTour is open to all junior golfers that have not reached their 19th birthday. Membership for the 2008 season is open from December 1, 2007 through August 1, 2008 with a maximum membership of 500 students per TourZone.

Age divisions are based upon the students age as of the first tour event in which he or she participates each season. Players whose birthday comes during the tour season play in the age division they were in when they started the season. Once a player turns 19 he or she is no longer eligible to participate in Top50jrTour events. (Exception: if the student qualifies for the state championship, based upon seasonal participation and points, the player may participate in the season ending championship). Divisions: Boys 15 & under, Boys 16 & over, Girls 15 & under, Girls 16 and over. The Midwest Top50jrTour recommends that students under the age of 11 contact Fox Hills Golf Club for other exceptional junior golf programs.

Qualifying Registration

The entry fee per Qualifying Round is $55. This includes the cost of golf, lunch and a competitive tournament experience for each player. There is no limit to the number of qualifying rounds you may enter. The "top 50 qualifiers" will advance to the Tournament Round at no additional cost. All Tournament Rounds are FREE!! Students may participate in other TourZones without having to pay another membership fee, however, there is an additional charge of $20 for each QR.
