Carlyle Junior Golf Tournament saw 54 junior golfers from the area take part in its event held on Aug 17. The annual event, held at Carlyle Golf Club, included two categories for golfers to compete in including 10 and under and 10 and over.
While the tournament is intended to be a fun tournament, there are older golfers that spend time preparing for junior tournaments such as this. Many of the participants spend a large amount of time on the courses throughout the region during their summers off. It is a love for the game that keeps these golfers on the course and will create the next generation of golfers.
With prizes donated by local business and community members, the tournament was able to provide prizes to each one of its golfers. Four flights resulted with first place finishers in each flight receiving $20, second place finishers receiving $10 and the remainder of the participants receiving $5. Additionally, all junior golfers went home with door prizes which were donated.
Winners included:
Championship Flight: Jeff Senko and Brad Senko
First flight: Evan Anderson and Drake Smith
Second Flight: Devon Stewart and Dustin Schill
Third Flight: Trevor Stewart and Nolan Ling
Hats off to this year's event organizers which included Austin Veysey, Kruz Wilson and Kiri Biberdorf. A job well done!
