FREDERICTON, NB – Golf New Brunswick (Golf NB) is thrilled to announce the resounding success of the inaugural season of the New Brunswick Junior Golf League (JGL), a groundbreaking initiative designed to welcome more juniors into competitive golf while fostering skill development and sportsmanship across the province.

The Junior Golf League represents a core part of Golf NB’s Junior Development Pathway, filling a significant gap in junior golf opportunities in New Brunswick. The JGL introduces young golfers, ages 8 to 18, to the exhilaration of tournament play through a series of one-day, 18-hole events held throughout the summer. Juniors must be under 19 as of August 1st of the competition year, making the league accessible to a broad age range while prioritizing fair competition and skill-building.

Kristi Roach, Chair of Junior Development at Golf NB, reflected on the program’s transformative impact: “Stepping foot onto the grounds at Gowan Brae for our first JGL event, I could feel the shift. The energy. Everyone was so excited to gather, to be together, to have something new to play for and be around. Watching the kids make new friends, learn the rules of golf, the little ones and their caddies, and the older ones competing – it truly feels like golf in New Brunswick is on the rise again. It’s a great time to be a junior golfer or know a junior golfer to be introduced into the Junior Golf League to learn more about the game we all know and love. The inaugural JGL season was just the tip of the iceberg, and I am so proud of Golf NB and all of our partners who ran with this and will continue to serve the junior golfers of NB into 2025 and beyond.”

Throughout the summer, over 200 junior golfers participated in six events held at various courses across New Brunswick, from Gowan Brae to Hampton Golf Club. They enjoyed a day filled with competitive play, camaraderie, and community support. Thanks to the generosity of local sponsors, hosting clubs, and supportive families who contributed to the program’s achievements, each participant received a tee gift, a meal, a round of golf, and the chance to win exciting prizes.

Golf NB recognizes and extends heartfelt thanks to Sonny Phillips and Philson Ltd. for their unwavering support and dedication to the Junior Golf League. Philson Ltd. believed in the JGL’s vision from its earliest stages, and their backing was instrumental in bringing the program to life. Additionally, Golf NB is deeply grateful to TaylorMade Canada, our Junior Golf Supplier Partner for the 2024 season. Their steadfast support has been invaluable in the continued success of junior golf initiatives across the province.

Andrea Garland, President of Golf NB, proudly commented, “The incredible success of the inaugural Junior Golf League program is a testament to the power of community support and dedication. Brianna and her team have created a welcoming environment that inspires, educates, and reignites interest in junior golf throughout New Brunswick.”

The JGL provides separate divisions for U19 and U11 golfers, with modified tees for younger participants to ease their introduction into competitive play. The program’s mission extends beyond competition, aiming to increase junior participation in golf events, educate both juniors and parents about the golf pathway, and provide essential resources for continued development. With additional support from the Canadian Sport Institute Atlantic (CSIA), the JGL has successfully laid a foundation for future growth and sustainable success in junior golf.

Looking forward, Golf NB intends to expand the program to 10 events, further enhancing both grassroots and competitive opportunities for young players. Executive Director Brianna McQuillan expressed her excitement for the league’s growth: “This program has helped bring excitement back to the junior golf landscape in NB, and we’re looking forward to seeing what the future holds for the JGL. It’s an inspiring time for junior golf in New Brunswick, and we are immensely grateful to our partner clubs, sponsors, and all contributors for making this possible.”

Club partners and junior golf directors echoed this enthusiasm, sharing positive reflections on the league’s impact. Andre Savoie, Director of Golf at Mountain Woods, remarked, “The JGL was an amazing success in 2024, with over 200 young players joining events at six clubs. Seeing these numbers grow is incredibly encouraging, and we hope to continue this positive trend in the years to come.” Jonathan Garron, Director of Golf at Hampton Golf Club, added, “For Hampton to be a part of the JGL’s inaugural year was a privilege. We’re excited to see where Golf NB takes this initiative in 2025 and beyond.”

The New Brunswick Junior Golf League has made significant strides toward a brighter future for junior golf, creating a lasting impact on New Brunswick’s golfing community. With ambitious growth goals, Golf NB looks forward to expanding its reach and inspiring even more young athletes to discover the joys and challenges of competitive golf.

Golf New Brunswick Junior Golf League (JGL) – Un succès sans précédent en 2024

Golf Nouveau-Brunswick (Golf NB) est ravi d’annoncer le succès retentissant de la saison inaugurale de la Ligue de golf junior du Nouveau-Brunswick (LGL), une initiative novatrice conçue pour accueillir un plus grand nombre de juniors dans le golf de compétition tout en favorisant le développement des habiletés et de l’esprit sportif dans toute la province.

La ligue de golf junior est un élément essentiel du parcours de développement junior de Golf NB, qui comble une lacune importante dans les possibilités de golf junior au Nouveau-Brunswick. La JGL initie les jeunes golfeurs, âgés de 8 à 18 ans, à l’exaltation du jeu en tournoi par le biais d’une série d’événements d’une journée et de 18 trous qui se déroulent tout au long de l’été. Les juniors doivent être âgés de moins de 19 ans au 1er août de l’année de compétition, ce qui rend la ligue accessible à un large éventail d’âges tout en mettant l’accent sur la compétition équitable et l’acquisition de compétences.

Kristi Roach, présidente du développement junior à Golf NB, a parlé de l’impact transformateur du programme : « En mettant le pied sur le terrain de Gowan Brae pour notre premier événement JGL, j’ai senti le changement. L’énergie. Tout le monde était tellement excité de se rassembler, d’être ensemble, d’avoir quelque chose de nouveau à jouer et à côtoyer. En regardant les enfants se faire de nouveaux amis, apprendre les règles du golf, les plus petits et leurs caddies, et les plus vieux en compétition, on a vraiment l’impression que le golf au Nouveau-Brunswick est de nouveau en plein essor. C’est le moment idéal pour être un golfeur junior ou connaître un golfeur junior et l’initier à la Ligue de golf junior pour en apprendre davantage sur le jeu que nous connaissons et aimons tous. La saison inaugurale de la JGL n’était que la pointe de l’iceberg, et je suis très fière de Golf NB et de tous nos partenaires qui se sont lancés dans cette aventure et qui continueront à servir les golfeurs juniors du Nouveau-Brunswick jusqu’en 2025 et au-delà.

Tout au long de l’été, plus de 200 golfeurs juniors ont participé à six événements organisés sur divers parcours du Nouveau-Brunswick, de Gowan Brae à Hampton Golf Club. Ils ont profité d’une journée remplie de compétition, de camaraderie et de soutien communautaire. Grâce à la générosité des commanditaires locaux, des clubs hôtes et des familles qui ont contribué aux réalisations du programme, chaque participant a reçu un cadeau de départ, un repas, une partie de golf et a eu la chance de gagner des prix intéressants.

Golf NB remercie sincèrement Sonny Phillips et Philson Ltd. pour leur soutien indéfectible et leur dévouement à la Ligue de golf junior. Philson Ltd. a cru en la vision de la JGL dès les premières étapes, et son appui a été déterminant dans la réalisation du programme. De plus, Golf NB est profondément reconnaissant envers TaylorMade Canada, notre partenaire fournisseur de golf junior pour la saison 2024. Leur soutien indéfectible a été inestimable pour le succès continu des initiatives de golf junior dans toute la province.

Andrea Garland, présidente de Golf NB, a fièrement commenté : « L’incroyable succès du programme inaugural de la Ligue de golf junior témoigne de la puissance du soutien et du dévouement de la communauté. Brianna et son équipe ont créé un environnement accueillant qui inspire, éduque et ravive l’intérêt pour le golf junior dans tout le Nouveau-Brunswick. »

Le JGL propose des divisions séparées pour les golfeurs U19 et U11, avec des tees modifiés pour les plus jeunes participants afin de faciliter leur introduction dans le jeu compétitif. La mission du programme va au-delà de la compétition et vise à augmenter la participation des juniors aux événements de golf, à éduquer les juniors et les parents sur le parcours de golf et à fournir des ressources essentielles pour un développement continu. Avec le soutien supplémentaire de l’Institut canadien du sport Atlantique (ICSA), le JGL a réussi à jeter les bases d’une croissance future et d’un succès durable dans le domaine du golf junior.

Golf NB a l’intention d’étendre le programme à 10 événements, ce qui permettra d’améliorer les possibilités de compétition pour les jeunes joueurs. La directrice générale, Brianna McQuillan, a exprimé son enthousiasme face à la croissance de la ligue : « Ce programme a contribué à redonner de l’enthousiasme au paysage du golf junior au Nouveau-Brunswick, et nous avons hâte de voir ce que l’avenir réserve à la JGL. C’est une période inspirante pour le golf junior au Nouveau-Brunswick, et nous sommes immensément reconnaissants à nos clubs partenaires, à nos commanditaires et à tous ceux qui ont contribué à rendre cela possible.

La Ligue de golf junior du Nouveau-Brunswick a fait d’importants progrès vers un avenir meilleur pour le golf junior, créant un impact durable sur la communauté des golfeurs du Nouveau-Brunswick. Avec des objectifs de croissance ambitieux, Golf NB a hâte d’étendre sa portée et d’inspirer encore plus de jeunes athlètes à découvrir les joies et les défis du golf de compétition.
