Osprey Links in Callander has been added to the BAGS Competitive Junior Golf Tour.

In fact, there are four near north events, including two in Sudbury, one in Parry Sound and the local event July 10th.

“There is a long history of a players coming down from the Sudbury/North Bay area to play in our events each week but in recent years the numbers have been growing so we figured it was time for us to come to them,” remarks Alistair Orr, Tour Director of the BAGS Junior Tour. “Junior golf in the north seems to be in a very healthy state at the moment but there is a shortage of local events for them to get out and test their skills in a competitive environment. We are hoping to fill that need by bringing these four events and giving the kids a place to compete closer to home. Although the kids are happy to be playing locally its the parents who are the happiest because their three plus hour drive times chauffeuring to events will be reduced drastically.”

This grass roots development circuit is designed for recreational and competitive players alike and is available to junior golfers aged 10 through 18.

Players can join as a tour member and play in as many tournaments as they like or join the tour for the day and play in single events as a guest of the tour.

The tour includes 13 single day events from late May through August, a match play series and a Tournament of Champions.
