The Notah Begay III Jr. Golf National Championship Series (NB3 JGNC) is a 2-stage qualifying process culminating in a 54-hole National Championship that will air on Golf Channel during a 2-hour broadcast each December. The Series is open to all players. In 2023, players who qualify through the available qualifying spots below will be able to play in up to two (2) Regional Finals. They may choose to play in both the Ohio Regional Final at Heatherwoode Golf Club on June 21-22, 2023 (Girls Only) or the Ohio Regional Final at Mill Creek Golf Course on July 20-21 (Boys Only) as well as the Canada Championship Qualifier at The Kanawaki Golf Club taking place July 31^st – August 1^st in Montreal, Quebec (Both boys and girls).

The NB3 JGNC will offer the following Qualifying Spots by Division: 

• Junior Boys (U19): Top-3 in Each Division
• Junior Girls (U19): Top-3 in Each Division
• Bantam Boys (U15): Top-3 in Each Division
• Bantam Girls (U15): Top-3 in Each Division

*Once qualified into the NB3 Regional Final, a player’s age division is determined by their age on May 1st. For example, if a player turns 14 in July of 2023, they will compete in the 12-13 Division throughout the entirety of the NB3 JGNC Series even though they may be 14 during a Local or Regional Final. If a player turns 14 before May 1st of 2023, then the player will compete in the 14-15 Division throughout the entirety of the NB3 JGNC Series. If your birthdate falls on May 1st and you turn 14, you will play in the 14-15 division (This age cutoff applies for all Divisions).

If a player turns 19 before the November 2023 National Championship OR is attending college or playing on a college golf team during this time frame, they will NOT be allowed to compete.
