2024 PRJT Code of Conduct

 

The Puerto Rico Junior Tour (PRJT)  prides itself in the quality of players, host facilities and community involvement of each of its events. In order to continue making our events enjoyable for everyone, the PRJT will not tolerate any behavior that is unbecoming of a junior golfer. Players in violation of the code of conduct of the PRJT, may lose playing privileges as well as being subject to penalty strokes or disqualification. 

 

All PRJT participants are reminded to respect the PRJT Staff, Rules Officials, host facilities and their staff/golf course. Players are expected to repair ball marks on the greens and divots where needed. Players are also expected to rake all bunkers and care for the course throughout their tournament experience.
