(Quincy, IL) — Calling all junior golfers ages 3 through 18! Registration for the Pepsi Little People’s Golf Championships is now open.

The 48th annual international junior tournament will be held June 21-23, 2021, at two golf courses in Quincy, IL. Participants can try to qualify or gain points for numerous other major junior golf events, and can gain ranking with the Junior Golf Scoreboard, GolfWeek/Sagarin and Global Junior Golf Rankings, so important to their college resumes.

Play in Little People’s is in seven age divisions for boys and seven for girls (3-5, 6-7, 8-9, 10-11, 12-13, 14-15 and 16-18), with trophies to places 1-3 in all divisions; medals to 4-6 in the 10-18 divisions, and participant trophies to all non-trophy winners ages 3-9.

Players ages 3-7 will play their two competitive rounds on June 22-23 at the KC Par-3 Golf Course, while golfers ages 8-18 will compete on the 27-hole Westview Golf Course on the same dates.

Tournament events start on Sunday, June 20, with the annual Applebee’s Parent-Child tournament, an optional 9-hole alternate shot event featuring one adult or sibling and one Little People’s participant. This includes a putting contest, driving contest and best dressed team event.

Monday, June 21, is practice round day for all participants, and includes the Applebee’s Closest to the Pin contest on the 9th hole at Westview. The winner receives a $75 gift certificate from the Westview Pro Shop. It is followed by the annual Family Celebration Picnic for all participants, families, friends and sponsors on the KC grounds.

Competition in all divisions is held on Tuesday and Wednesday, followed by prize presentations on Wednesday for each age group.
