Excitement is building as registration opens for the 2025-26 Drive, Chip and Putt competition, a premier event designed to inspire young golfers across the nation. This annual tournament, which focuses on developing essential golf skills, invites participants aged 7 to 15 to showcase their abilities in three key areas: driving, chipping, and putting.
In Louisiana and Mississippi, aspiring golfers can now find details about qualifying sites and dates. The competition not only provides a platform for youth to demonstrate their talents but also fosters a love for the sport, encouraging participation at a young age. Local qualifiers will take place in various locations, giving young athletes the chance to compete for a spot in the national finals held at Augusta National Golf Club, home of the prestigious Masters Tournament.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to register their children early, as spots may fill up quickly. This is a fantastic opportunity for young golfers to gain experience, meet peers, and potentially pave the way for a future in the sport.
