Care of the Golf Course

It is critical to the MDJGT that we take good care of the golf courses that host our events. Please repair ball marks, replace divots, rake bunkers and put trash in the appropriate containers during golf rounds. Your cooperation will go a long way when we try to get the facility to host future events.

Dress Code

The Musselman-Dunne Junior Golf Tour takes great pride in its junior golfers and strives to make the tour the best in the state. You play a big part by the way you conduct yourselves while competing in an event. In order to promote a positive message across Kentucky, the following dress code will be enforced.

  1. All boys must wear a shirt with a collar and sleeves (t-shirts and tank tops are not acceptable).
  2. All girls shirts must be golf type shirts (t-shirt and tank tops are not acceptable).
