Junior Golf Tour Highlights K looz Holds on to Win Junior
Amateur by Three L ittle Junior Amateur Crowns 2012 Champions
Norfolk– Mitchell Klooz of Laurel needed every bit of his 1-under par 71 in the final round to hold off 2012 Junior Match Play Champion Zach Taylor of Omaha. Taylor's 6-under par 66 wasn't quite enough to pass Klooz who started the day with an eight shot lead.
Taylor trimmed the lead to three shots after shooting a 3-under par 33 on the front nine. Taylor chipped in for ea-gle on #10 to briefly get within one, but Klooz made a key birdie putt to move two shots ahead. Back-to-back birdies on #11 and #12 by Taylor left both players tied at 7-under par. A bogey on #13 by Klooz gave Taylor a one-shot lead.
The lead for Taylor, however, only lasted two holes. Klooz had some fight left in him. He finished his round with three straight birdies to bring home his first state cham-pionship.
Carson Schaake of Omaha finished at even par and Sam Meuret of Brunswick was fourth at 1-over par. Click here to view the complete results.
Omaha – The Nebraska Golf Association crowned cham-pions in five divisions at the Little Junior Amateur on Monday at Sunset Valley Country Club. Winners included Joshua Chipman of Papillion (Boys 10-11), Megan Whit-taker of Elkhorn (Girls 10-11), Ryan Miller of Omaha (Boys 8-9), Brynn Sundquist of Lincoln (Girls 8-9) and Harry Vondrak of Omaha (Boys 6-7). Click here to view the complete results.
Sunday winners were crowned in the LJA Parent Child including 2012 champions Steven and Derek Brannan of Bellevue , 1st flight winners Dale & DJ Savington of Oma-ha and 2nd Flight winners Bridget & Melissa Duffy of Omaha.

As an extension of other initiatives that first introduce the game, the Nebraska Golf Association created FORE!, a program that will provide opportunities for juniors to play golf more frequently. This statewide initiative will offer deserving youth the opportunity to play some of the ar-ea's best courses for $4 putting to use the life skills and values training they learn prior to membership. FORE! will begin in 2012 as a pilot program in the Omaha Metropol-itan area. In 2013 FORE! will begin a statewide push.
FORE! membership will be open to participants aged 7-17 in one of the following certified programs: First Tee of Omaha, Great Golf Expectations Omaha, Junior Golf Pro-grams at Host Facilities, LPGA/USGA Girls Golf of Omaha, Nebraska Junior Golf Tour and Omaha Metropolitan Area High School Golf Teams. FORE! members will be labeled "Full Access" or "Supervised Access" based on age and or playing ability. "Supervised Access" members must be accompanied by an adult at 18-hole facilities. The fee for both membership classifications is $10 which includes NGA membership. Members will receive their FORE! membership cards once their program director has sub-mitted the completed application and individual mem-berships are paid.

Play More with FORE!
How do I become a FORE! member?
FORE! membership is open to participants aged 7-17 in one of the following certified programs: First Tee of Omaha; Great Golf Expectations, Omaha; Junior Golf Programs at Host Facilities; LPGA/USGA Girls Golf of Omaha; Nebraska Junior Golf Tour and Omaha Metro-politan Area High School Golf Teams. Qualified candi-dates must submit a membership application to the NGA. Applications are available in the Junior section of the NGA web site (nebgolf.org) under FORE!
How long does my FORE! membership last?
FORE! membership is good during the months of June and July only in 2012.
What are the age restrictions for FORE! participation?
FORE! membership is available to golfers aged 7-17.
Am I a NGA member when I receive my FORE! membership card?
Yes. FORE! members will receive NGA membership infor-mation including details on maintaining a GHIN Handi-cap Index along with their membership card.
Am I limited on rounds I can play?
No. Play as many rounds as you can, the more the better as far as we’re concerned.
Are there any additional fees besides the $4 per round for golf?
The fee for membership is $10. Each 9 or 18-hole round is $4. That’s it.
Are there any restrictions on when I can play for the reduced FORE! rate?
No. Participating golf courses may limit some rounds based on availability. FORE! members cannot make a tee time reservation more than 48 hours in advance. Prior to that full paying customers have priority.
FORE! FAQ’S
Omaha Municipal Golf Courses (Benson, Elmwood, Johnny Good-man, Spring Lake, Steve Hogan, Warren Swigart & Westwood)
Papillion Municipal Golf Courses (Eagle Hills & Tara Hills)
Funding
FORE! is based on the following formula. The NGA has negotiated a preferred junior golf rate with participating facilities. The FORE! member will pay a $4 fee for a round of golf (for 9 or 18 hole rounds). The NGF subsidizes the difference between the preferred rate and the FORE! member payment.
Duration
FORE! will take place during the months of June and July only. Membership forms and payment may be submitted to the NGA office at 6618 South 118th Street, Omaha, NE 68137.
