UNFORTUNATELY DUE TO COVID-19 THE ORDER OF MERIT WILL NOT BE GOING AHEAD AS PLANNED THIS YEAR
Warwickshire Golf Union, in partnership with Warwickshire Ladies County Golf Association, are delighted to announce an exciting new Junior Order of Merit for 2020.
Competitions will take place at some of the leading Golf Clubs in the county, as the youngsters chase the top prize in the 18-hole gross and net categories for both boys and girls, as well as trying to book their place in the Junior 'Hall of Fame' Grand Final at the end of the season.
And NEW for 2020, we are holding a nine-hole Order of Merit for both boys and girls as we look to encourage higher handicappers, younger golfers and those trying to get their first handicap. Places are once again up for grabs in the Junior 'Hall of Fame' Grand Final.
