Arnold Palmer Golf Management is hosting The 2024 PGA Family Golf Championship at Walt Disney World Resort.
In 2022, the PGA of America introduced PGA Family Golf, which built upon the great success of the PGA Junior League program-- a program in which Arnold Palmer Golf Management have articipated in annually at Walt Disney World Golf.
In previous years, they have also hosted the PGA Junior League National Championship in 2015.
Last year, the PGA of America hosted the inaugural PGA Family Golf Championship at PGA West in La Quinta, California with almost 150 participants from 24 states. This year, Arnold Palmer Golf Management will be hosting the 2024 PGA Family Golf Championship at Disney's Palm Golf Course, September 28 and 29.
The PGA Family Golf Championship will bring together teams of 2 to 4 players, who are all biologically or legally related, to compete in two days of weekend fun and create great memories and moments with their loved ones.
PGA Family Golf brings family members of all ages and skill levels together on multi-generational teams, and programs are hosted exclusively by PGA of America Golf Professionals and LPGA Professionals.
At the 2024 PGA Family Golf Championship, teams will play in one of four divisions:
Junior: Teams include at least one adult and one junior
Adult: Teams include all adults
Professional Adult: Teams include at least one PGA of America Golf Professional or
LPGA Professional
Professional Junior: Teams include at least one PGA of America Golf Professional or LPGA Professional and at least one junior
The first round will be a scramble format where two players hit a tee shot. Teams will select the best shot and two players will play from that spot and continue this process until the ball is holed. For those competing in a junior division, one adult and one junior must have an attempt at each shot.
The final round will be a modified alternate shot format where two players hit a tee shot. Teams will select the best shot and then alternate shots between players until the ball is holed. Junior division teams will alternate their shots between adults and juniors. The team with the lowest 36-hole stroke play total at the end of round two will be named the champion of their division.
