Our Mission
Making the Game Better for All Ages
The Southern California PGA Junior Tour’s mission is to create learning and playing opportunities for individuals of all ages and skill levels throughout Southern California. We aim to utilize golf as a vehicle to instill values such as integrity, honor, and patience. The SCPGA Junior Tour strives to foster and develop these values that will positively impact our member’s character on and off the golf course.
Established in 1948, the Southern California PGA now hosts one of the largest and most respected junior golf programs in the country. The SCPGA Junior Tour is a three-tiered program featuring the Toyota Tour Cup, the Players Tour and the Junior Development Tour. Together, these three tours administer over 290 tournaments annually for kids of all ages and skill levels. These events provide playing opportunities throughout Southern California, many of which are hosted by PGA facilities. The Junior Tour boasts countless alumni including Tiger Woods, Rickie Fowler, Lizette Salas, Charlie Wi, Brendan Steele, Danielle Kang, Jennifer Johnson, John Cook, Patrick Cantlay and many more.

The Toyota Tour Cup @ Redhawk is in the books! A special thank you to Jeff Sampson and all the wonderful staff at Redhawk Golf Club for hosting us again!
It was a close one coming down the stretch for the girls, finishing with a 3-way playoff for the title between Angela Heo, Yana Wilson, and Elina Kuang. Yana Wilson birdied the first playoff hole to claim her first TTC win! Congrats girls on the stellar play!
For the boys, many were close to the top but no one was able to catch up to Shuqun Sun who eagled the 18th to shoot -2 total and take home the win by 3! Great playing by Justin Lee and Matt Robles who finished T-2nd at +1!
Special highlight of the week was a hole-in-one by Ken Shibata on #4 from 155 yards! Congrats Ken!

Round one is in the books @palamesaresort for this week's #toyotatourcup
This tight & challenging layout will test the skills mentally and physically for those that want a shot at hoisting the cup! Our young stars were up to the task as quite a few posted rounds in the red.
🏌️♀️
Anna Davis made the turn -4, 32 and kept it going with a birdie on 10 (video). She followed it up with another 32 to post a course record -8, 64! She'll have a 7 stroke advantage over Kylie Chong (-1) going into Sunday's final round. 🤯
⛳️
Eric Lee posted a solid -4, 67 to hold a 1 stroke lead over Luciano Conlan and David Cho. 14 players are within 5 shots and will be a close one down the stretch! Best of luck to all!

Alona Avery and Luciano Conlan withstand the desert heat to claim victory! Avery posted a final round 66 to just edge out Wilson by a single stroke! Jude Lee fired a closing 69 to claim solo third. It was a similar story for the boys as Luciano Conlan posted the tournament low 64 finishing at -10 for the come-from-behind victory! Ryan Abuan almost matched Conlan with a 65 to take solo second at -8 while Leo Cheng followed his opening 67 with another solid round of 68 to take solo third.
