We are delighted to have been invited to join with the Junior Open at Burnham & Berrow and to use this as the qualifying competition for the Somerset Junior Champion Club. The winners will be invited to represent the County at the National Finals, to be played this year in August .

The rulese are very simple: 

• Each Club can enter as many teams as they wish at a cost of £15 per team - the entry fees are donated to the winning club to help diffray the expenses they incur in attending the national finals
• Teams consist of 3 playerswith each score counting. Teams may be boys, girls or a combination.
• Each player  must also be a competitor in the Burnham & Berrow Junior Open, and they are responsible for entering that competition themselves.
• The constitution of teams must be registered with the SGU Registration Team who will be on hand on the day prior to the first player going out.

We hope that Junior Organisers within the County will support the event. Somerset have come very close to winning the competition in the past, none more so than Worlebury who finished as runners-up in 2015. In the absence of a Junior Organiser, individuals may wish to talk to their playing companions about entering as a team - I am sure that Clubs would be only too pleased to support. 

Entry forms and posters can be downloaded from this page - but plase remember to enter the Burnham & Berrow Junior Open as well!
