Membership Levels and Pricing
The Philadelphia Section PGA Junior Tour (PJT) is for individuals who are 18 years of age or younger by June 1st and have not started college. The Full Tour is defined as the 18-hole divisions as well as the 12 & Under Divisions, whereas the the FUNdamental Tour is not considered to be the full tour; caddies are for the FUN tour only. The following memberships are available:
Full Membership: $195
The Full Membership is for all juniors 18 years of age & younger. To participate on the PJT, a junior must be a member to compete in a tournament or a junior can pay the non-member fee for that event. The Full Membership gives you access to every event on the full Junior Tour except for the Boys Jr. PGA Championship, 12 & Under Championship, Harry Hammond Invitational, Jr. Tour Championship, and the Jon M. Pritsch Cup (Must qualify for these events). We recommend if you cannot consistently break 110, that you start out on the FUNdamental Tour. New Members will need to create a profile in Golf Genius.

Sibling Membership: $170
Any junior enrolled in a Full Membership with a brother or sister 18 years of age or younger can enroll their sibling in the Sibling Membership. The Sibling Membership is identical to the Full Membership except that the Sibling Membership is discounted $25. As long as one sibling is signed up for the Full Membership (not the FUN membership), any remaining brothers or sisters may sign up for the discounted Sibling Membership level. If you are looking to purchase the sibling membership, then the siblings must have separate Golf Genius profiles. The Sibling Membership gives you access to every event on the Junior Tour except for the Boys Jr. PGA Championship, 12 & Under Championship, Harry Hammond Invitational, Jr. Tour Championship, and the Jon M. Pritsch Cup, as a player must qualify for these events. New Members will need to create a profile in Golf Genius. Click New Member below for instructions.

We require all players who have birthdays in the spring, to move up by June 1st. Once players move up a division, they lose Player of the Year points and Scoring Average standings from the previous division. To help with this transition, we recommend for these players to start the season in the division they will be moving up to in June. Players that turn a different age after June 1st can stay in their current age division.
Please contact the PJT Task Force if you have any questions/concerns on a junior golfers playing ability.

Membership Policies and Procedures
Due to the high volume of phone calls and to comply with PCI standards, we do not accept entries or payment via the telephone. We apologize for the inconvenience.
The PJT will send a confirmation email to each member with a payment link. Once payment has been submitted, your membership should be completed and you can begin to register for tournaments. Your log-in credentials will be the email address on file and a custom password that you set.
Tournament Registration will remain open for all events until a week prior to the tournament at 4:00pm or when the maximum player field for that event has been reached; at the point all registration spots are filled players that sign up for a full event will be put on the waitlist. The maximum player field depends on the host facility, and how many tee times they give to us. Tee times will be posted online and also emailed to each participant within 3-5 days prior to the tournament date. Withdrawals must be made by 4:00p.m., one week prior to the tournament date and before tee times are sent out in order to receive a refund.
