The Little Linksters is an introductory tournament-based program for golfers aged 6-12. The program is designed for players improve their scores and ability as well as learn to compete. Little Linksters allows for players to move at their own pace and allows the same-age juniors to compete at different levels.
The design of Little Linksters is for players to move up to the next division once they improve their scores. Adults are encouraged to support their juniors by caddying and being out on the course.
The STPGA would like to welcome back all returning caddies to the STPGA Caddie program as well as welcome all new Caddies to the 2024 Caddie Program. The Caddie Program is such an important part of the STPGA Junior Golf Program, and we hope that each Caddie enjoys the opportunity to be a part of their son or daughter’s team.

The player proceeds to hit his or her third (3) shot into the same penalty area. The play may then drop on the other side of the penalty area. At this point, the player will be laying four (4) and will proceed to hit his or her fifth (5) shot.
Note: The player must count the two (2) strokes for hitting into the penalty area before proceeding under this rule.
