      USKids Golf Atlanta Local Tour Director

      U.S. Kids Golf Local Tours are created to allow boys and girls, ages 5 to 18, to advance their skills in the game in age-appropriate competition without taking the time and incur the costs of traveling long distances. A Local Tour consists of six to eight one-day tournaments, including a season-ending one-day Local Tour Championship. Players earn awards and points for each tournament.While events were traditionally only held for players between the ages of 5-14, beginning in the Summer of 2020, most Local Tours began including a new 15-18 age group to help young golfers and their families continue to create positive experiences throughout the player's entire junior career.
