The Iowa Junior Tour Player of the Year is awarded to a junior in each division with the most amount of points from the season. This prestigious award is the top honor a junior can receive for their accomplishments on the Iowa Junior Tour. For 2012, Player of the Year point totals will be comprised of ALL events in which a junior participates and will be kept track of in BlueGolf. There will be 4 event categories: Ace, Eagle, Birdie and Par. Aces will be worth the most amount of points, then Eagles, Birdies and finally Par events. The complete set of details will be available in the policy and procedure manual which will be located in the 2012 online directory. Juniors must be members of the Iowa Junior Tour to accrue points. Player of the Year award recipients and their families will be invited to attend the All Star Pro Golf Awards Luncheon held in October at Riverside Casino & Golf Resort.
