In memory of our beloved friend Charlie Pifer, who passed on April 11, 2008 we present the following junior tournaments. To all of his dear friends at DAGA in Miami and First Tee, we offer our condolences. God Bless.

"Life is too short to wake up with regrets. So love the people who treat you right. Forget about the ones who don't.  Believe everything happens for a reason. If you get a chance, take it.  If it changes your life, let it.  Nobody said life would be easy. They just promised it would most likely be worth it."

Success follows experience

Welcome to the most personal Junior Golf Program in the World

Keep a good attitude, and you persevere, get some breaks and make some putts, you can still find a way to POST A GOOD SCORE. Never give up. Never let your emotions get the best of your ability. You never know when you are going to hole a fairway shot or chip shot. If you can reach the green you can make that shot go into the hole. It happens when you least expect it. But it will happen!
