The fabulous and storied Stanley Park layout hosted an enthusiastic group of junior golfers, boys and girls, with great conditions, firm and rolling greens and the bonus of sunshine and many happy smiles. Age 6 & Under “Pee Wees” led the way with Victoria's Jeevan Sihota taking the title. Jeevan has grown a lot and recorded no less than 9 three's on his card. Two newcomers took second and third place medals, namely Nathan Boal of Burnaby & Sher Sidhu of Surrey. Young Nathan enjoyed his two birdie-two's on the front nine as did Sher his two.
Age 7 – 8 “Pee Wees” , our strongest and largest group, had multi-winner Ilirian Zalli of Vancouver use his two birdies to take the first place trophy with a score of 59. Just one stroke behind was newcomer Jess Lee of Vancouver at 60 and third place to Michael Crisologo of Richmond at 61. Jess had two birdies and Michael had three birdies, all on the back nine. Keep on birdieing!
Age 9 – 10 “Divots” division saw the day's best score, a 57, recorded by Sumie Francois of Burnaby, taking the trophy, with the always steady Raymond Li of Vancouver taking the silver medal at 62 and Justin Yap of Richmond third. Sumie had two birdies and is tuning up for the Callaway Junior World in July.
Junior Girl's Division winner was Claire Lovan of Surrey, again demonstrating the value of good cheer to all her fellow competitors and the commitee! Silver medal to the quickly improving Toby Lau of Richmond, with the bronze medal happily accepted by Westbank's Alyssa Chang. Great to see youngsters from Washington, Kelowna and Victoria areas. All can enjoy their golf
