A total of 23,170 high school golfers are expected to compete in 200 tournaments across the country in the World Series of Junior Golf Tour.

Known as the Junior Tour, this grass roots organization is in part founded and managed by high school golf coaches.

In mid to late June the boys and girls divisions will compete in 91 36-hole regional tour qualifier events. The top 40 players from each qualifier will advance to one of 26 regionals in late July and August.

The Junior Tour, open to players aged 13-19, expects competition in 1988 in Japan, Australia and Europe.
