Medicus
Golf To Sponsor AJGA Preseason/Postseason Junior Series
Medicus Golf will sponsor the Medicus Preseason/Postseason
Junior Series, the American Junior Golf Association
announced Thursday. The Series includes eight events
designed specifically for first-time AJGA members or
those members who have not yet participated in an AJGA
Open event, Invitational or Nike Golf Junior All-Star
Series event. Medicus
Golf and The Medicus Golf Institute are dedicated to
enabling all golfers to “Live Their Vision”
in reaching their potential. By expanding its corporate
vision, mission, products, and services, Medicus Golf
will enable golfers to learn and grow – both as
a person and as a player – in a series of new
and exciting developmental formats. “We
are very excited to be involved with such a professional
organization as the AJGA and have the opportunity to
extend our knowledge and expertise to these fine junior
players,” said Bob Koch, president of Medicus
Golf. “In addition, we look forward to giving
all AJGA players the opportunity to participate in tournament
play and provide them with educational experiences during
our Medicus Clinic Series.” The
Medicus Clinic Series will be run under the direction
of Bob Koch and Chuck Evans, executive director of instruction
for Medicus Golf Institute. A clinic will be conducted
during the tournament cookout at each event, which will
be held after the first round of competition. The
36-hole events will be filled on a first-come, first-served
basis for those AJGA members who are eligible to apply.
Each event will consist of a practice round, a clinic
conducted by an instructor from the Medicus Golf Institute
and two competitive rounds.
The
first event of the Series and the AJGA season is scheduled
for April 7-9. The Medicus Preseason Junior at Black
Bear will be conducted at Black Bear Golf Club in Eustis,
Fla. Other events include: Medicus Preseason Junior
at RTJ Grand National (April 14-16, Grand National Golf
Course - Lake Course, Opelika, Ala.); Medicus Preseason

AJGA is very excited about our partnership with Medicus
Golf,” said JasonEtzen, AJGA executive vice president
for corporate partnerships. “The Medicus Preseason/Postseason
Junior Series is a great opportunity for our members
who have never played in an AJGA tournament. These events
will allow juniors to gain valuable experience and exposure
at the national level.” The
Medicus Golf Institution will “live its vision”
by offering three fully integrated learning systems: •
An online learning and training program to educate golfers
in the knowledge of the game and golf specific sessions
for personal training. All
three learning formats will be able to assess the golfer
in their strengths and weaknesses within their game
and provide a standardized roadmap for player development
and game enhancement. |
