The MA One-Day Series included 8 One-Day tournaments in the Middle Atlantic region,\"\"\u00a0concluding this weekend with a two-day Series Finale. These events offer innovative yardage-based divisions to girls aged 9-17. The PKBGT Series Progression<\/a> allows players to progress towards playing collegiate golf by playing yardage\/skill appropriate tournaments as they develop their game.<\/p>\n

One-day tournaments are designed for golfers of all skill levels, but are a great place for development golfers to \u201cget in to the swing of things\u201d playing tournament golf. The goal of One-Day Open Series events is to provide a fun and friendly tournament on a premium golf course.\u00a0The Middle Atlantic Series Finale at Fawn Lake CC\u00a0 features a field of 51 players from the PKB Girls\u2019 Golf Tour, the nation\u2019s largest \u201cgirls\u2019 only\u201d junior tour.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Due to the recent weather postponing several events, the Middle Atlantic Series Finale will not be the finale MA event of the season. The series will actually conclude in the coming weeks following the completion of the postponed events. At that time we will crown our Order of Merit champions and officially end the 2018 Middle Atlantic Series. As for this weekends competition, there is a talented pool of golfers slated to participate and we preview each division below!<\/p>\n
