2024 Junior Links Championship Invitation Breakdown

STPGA Championships are meant to reward players that participate in many events but also bring highly skilled players together to form a cohesive Championship. The STPGA has outlined how many players will receive an invitation to The STPGA Fall Championship based on their points earnings at the end of the Junior Links Series on December 8th. As stated in our Junior Golf Rules and. Regulations, our Championship fields are a direct representation of our entire program based on both the number of players in each metro area, the number of players in each division, and past averages.

Below is the initial Invitation Breakdown for the Junior Links Championship. An updated Invitation Breakdown will be released on October 15th that reflects changes or fluctuation in participation by metro area and division throughout the Summer Season. Please note, no division will experience a decrease in invitations when the update is made with the exception of an age division in a given metro that has experienced zero participation. This updated Invitation Breakdown will dictate how many junior golfers will

get invited per division and metro area when the season is complete on December 8th.

Please review the following process that will be utilized for Championship invitations in 2024:

1. Once invitations are sent, invited players will have 24 hours to register or decline their invitation. After a player declines or no action has been completed in 24 hours, the invited player will lose their spot and the next player from the same division/metro area Points List will be invited. If there are no players next on the same list, the spot will revert to the overall division Points List.

2. Players in the top 10% of their respective overall division Points List regardless of metro area that may not have earned a spot via the breakdown below will receive an invitation. If these spots are not needed, this does not mean the STPGA will invite more players.

3. The STPGA reserves the right to invite players based on the overall division Points List on Thursday, December 12th in order to complete the playing field.
