GIRLS JUNIOR AMERICAS CUP
Guadalajara Country Club in Guadalajara, Mexico was the site for the 2005 Girls Junior Americas Cup team matches from July 26-28th. 18 teams comprised of four players per team represented Canada, Mexico and 11 western states. The event uses a college team scoring format, best three scores for each round, in 54 holes of individual stroke play.
This year the teams from Mexico and Southern California tied for first place finishing three rounds with a score of 671. Playing on Arizona’s team were Sarah Freeman, Courtney Belanger, Meghan Martinek, and Ashley McKenney. They finished 12th with a score of 730. Being selected to play in the Girls Junior Americas Cup is one of the highest honors in junior golf.
Our Arizona girls are an active and involved group who love the game of golf and the competitive opportunities it offers. It is a chance for them to make new friends and develop an interest in international cultures. But their programs need financial support and the AWGA is one resource for them for funding.
Please give to our Junior Girls Fund. Arizona is hosting
the Girls Junior Americas Cup in 2006 which means more
expenses will be incurred and more donations are needed.
Take a look at our barometer. We still have ample time
to reach our goal of $45,000. Send your donation to
the AWGA office today.
