Junior Golf Rankings

Mac Thayer

Founder

We started the Junior Golf Scoreboard in May of 1998 right after my son finished his junior career and was headed off to college. It literally began in a storage room that we sublet from a company. With our one phone we called every tournament we could find and began building a database of events for people to find on our website.

As a former junior golf Dad I knew that parents were struggling to learn more about the sport and how to enter tournaments. College coaches had no way to follow the sport nationally and there was very little information about playing the sport or how college recruiting worked. So we began building the Scoreboard with content that we hope would be useful.

My passions include family time with Porter, Christopher and Alison, working as an adult volunteer in youth Ministry, playing golf, and working on issues surrounding conservation and the challenges of climate change.

Do you have an idea for us? Give us a call ! We get our best ideas from parents and junior golfers.
