Norman Garon Trust Junior Community Tour Celebratory Event

Garon Park Golf Complex, Saturday 6th July 2025

The NGT Celebratory Event is the final event of the year in the Junior calendar, and is hosted by Garon Park yearly. The prizes are split into categories of age, gender, and stableford/scratch scoring.

The competitors had some great weather for them after a week of consistent rain! However, the course had benefited from this massively, and looked in great condition for the day ahead. There was some very impressive scores, both in the scratch & stableford categories with all players showcasing the high quality of Junior Golf in Essex.
