The JAGS Junior Tour is an academic junior golf tour. Players approved for a Gold or Silver membership have agreed to maintain a 3.0 grade point during the current golfing season and submit their grades at the completion of each quarter or semester grading period. Grade point averages are verified by reviewing a single report card or a school transcript showing a student’s overall grade point average. JAGS Junior Tour will take the highest grade point average from either a single official grading period or from a player’s overall gpa on their school transcript.
JAGS Junior Tour calculates grade
point averages as follows:
High school grades for AP & IB college courses are weighted and calculated as shown below:
A= 5 pts., B= 4 pts., C= 3 pts., D= 1 pts., F= 0 pts.
High school grades for Honor courses will be weighted and calculated as shown below:
A= 4.5 pts., B= 3.5 pts., C= 2.5 pts., D= 1 pts., F= 0 pts.
High school non-weighted grades and all grades received for junior high and elementary level students will be calculated as shown:
A= 4 pts., B= 3 pts., C= 2 pts., D= 1 pts., F= 0 pts.

Unreadable or altered report cards or school
transcripts will not be accepted and will places
a player’s membership status on Academic
Probation. JAGS Junior Tour only accepts single report
cards or a complete school transcript for gpa
verification.
Should a student’s single semester or quarter
grades falls below the required 3.0 gpa, a
complete school transcript will be accepted for
overall gpa calculation purposes.
Should a student’s single semester or quarter
grades fall below the required 3.0 gpa and their
school transcript reports their over-all gpa is
also below a 3.0 gpa, the player will be placed
on Academic Probation.
Gold or Silver members placed on Academic Probation may submit additional grades during the current grading period (progress grades) within 5 days after receipt for consideration to be temporarily removed from academic probation until final grades are received at the end of the grading period.
Please Note:
Players placed on academic probation may sign up for tournaments anytime while on academic probation at the Bronze tournament entry fee level (no gpa required) until their gpa is back to required status of 3.0 or higher and approved by JAGS Junior Tour. Bronze level entry fees received for upcoming tournaments for players on academic probation will not be credited back to the Gold or Silver level if the entry fee is received and processed before updated grades are remitted and the player removed from academic probation. JAGS Junior Tour does closely monitor and verifies entry fees prior to approval to confirm the proper entry fee level was selected according to the player’s membership level and gpa status. JAGS Junior Tour reserves the right to change an entry fee to the proper fee level if deemed necessary for proper membership level or academic reasons.
