Salinas Valley Junior Golf Association was founded in October, 1994 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization.

Its mission is to develop and support a public junior golf program for all interested children and to promote the game to any child wanting to learn.

Our yearly membership now averages 200-300 junior golfers between the ages of 6 and 18.  There are many benefits to being a member of SVJGA.  (Programs and Tournaments)  Membership must be renewed annually with an updated application.  Each $25 membership is good from January 1-December 31 of each year.

Effective December, 2007, The First Tee, SVJGA, and AT&T Jr. Golf will be offering a triple membership.  You may still join SVJGA only for $25, or the First Tee of Monterey County only for $95, or AT&T Jr. Golf only for $25. Or you can join all three organizations for $120 and enjoy a $25 savings. With a triple membership, you will also receive an NCGA handicap card at no extra cost. Please make sure that you include your current NCGA number  (if you have one) on your application. You may also renew your NCGA card by joining only TFTMC or SVJGA. This card will allow you to post your scores at each of the courses that you play and have an official handicap. This card also allows you discount green fees at  Bayonet, Laguna Seca, Poppy, etc.
