Jungolf season kicks off
MANILA, Philippines--The quest for points for the national junior ranking system begins Sunday with the first of a series of school season weekend tournaments of the Junior Golf Foundation of the Philippines at the Tat Filipinas course in San Pedro, Laguna, and the Riviera executive course in Silang, Cavite.
Competitions for Classes A (15 to 17 years), B (13 to 14), C (11 to 12) and D (9 to 10) and the special division (18 to 21) will be played at Tat Filipinas and the E (7 to 8) and F (6 and under) at Riviera in the first official event where ranking points are available.
Jungolf will use the ranking system as basis for the selection of official entries and representatives to various national and international junior golf tournaments and for awards, recognition and grants.
ICTSI is the chief backer of the revitalized circuit with Philippine Airlines, McDonald’s, Smart, Golf Depot and Pioneer Insurance also pledging their support.
Next week’s leg will also be played at Tat Filipinas and Riviera.
Jungolf chair Gerry Handog, president Luigi Tabuena and tournament committee head Col. Norman Legaspi bared a year-round lineup of activities that will be capped by a major international event in honor of its late founder Amalia Montecillo in November.
