Who we are:

        Bay Cities League is the premier junior golf league in the nation. It consists of 28 private and semi-private golf clubs in the greater San Francisco Bay Area. Ranging in location from Olympic Club to the West, Santa Rosa C. C. to the North, Oakhurst C.C. to the East, and Silver Creek Valley C.C. to the South, these clubs are all among the top ranked and most admired golf courses in California.

        Our junior players range in ages from 7 through 21 (there is no lower age limit). Many of the juniors are the children and grand-children of club members, but most clubs encourage participation by non-member juniors living in the community, reaching out to those who would otherwise not have the opportunity to participate in such a junior golf program. Bay Cities junior players are young men and women who compete because of their love of the game, their desire to learn and improve their skills, and because they find truth and respect in good, fair competition. As they grow and develop, they comprise some of the top junior and amateur players in the country. Some go on to college level golf, and some have become stars on the PGA, LPGA, and other tours. All have gone on to enduring friendships with not only their teammates, but also with their playing opponents. Our juniors add fresh and energetic enthusiasm to the game of golf and to their home clubs.
