Golf Ontario

Ontario’s championship season gets underway this weekend as many of the province’s top junior golfers head to Kawartha Golf Club and Wooden Sticks Golf Club for the annual Junior Spring Classics. 

The Junior Girls Spring Classic is set for Kawartha Golf Club in Peterborough, while the Junior Boys event returns to Wooden Sticks Golf Club in Uxbridge.  

Featuring elite 60-player fields, the Junior Spring Classics serve as one of the first major competitive benchmarks of the season for many of Ontario’s rising players.

The boys championship returns to Wooden Sticks Golf Club, one of Ontario’s most unique and recognizable courses. With its replica-inspired design and demanding setup, Wooden Sticks presents a unique challenge rarely experienced in junior competition. 

Tournament Director, John Lawrence, says the event remains one of the toughest junior championships to qualify for in Ontario. 

“The Junior Spring Classic is one of the hardest junior events to qualify for in Ontario, with more than 250 players attempting to earn one of 60 spots in the field,” said Lawrence. “Many current and former Team Ontario athletes — and several Ontario players now competing on the PGA Tour — have played in this championship. Competing at Wooden Sticks is a special opportunity for junior golfers.”

The girl’s championship heads to Kawartha Golf Club, a historic Stanley Thompson design ranked among Canada’s Top 100. The course will challenge players with elevation changes, tight tee shots, and small greens throughout the 54-hole championship.  

Tournament Director, Mason Cowan, believes Kawartha Golf Club will reward strong course management and smart decision making throughout the week. 

“The course will play long, with its elevation changes throughout the property, and I think to have success, players have to focus on their course management and iron play over all three championship rounds,” said Cowan. “The course requires players to carefully consider the best moments to attack the flag.”
