About the PKBGT<\/h2>\n

Founded in 2007 by the Triad Youth Golf Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)(3) charitable organization, as a local girls\u2019 golf tour in the Triad region of North Carolina, the tour began as a simple concept: create more effective competitive playing opportunities for girls. By utilizing innovative yardage-based divisions instead of the traditional age-based format, the tour focused on developing tournament experience at the player\u2019s pace. The 2019 season will feature over 90 tournaments in 9 states on the East Coast and with over 900 members, the PKBGT is the largest girl\u2019s only tour in the country.\u00a0 Learn more about the PKBGT at\u00a0http:\/\/www.pkbgt.org\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
