Below is an outline of changes to the 2025 All-Star Play Day Handbook.
2025 Changes | Reason for change |
Updated Participation Requirement | To allow the option for teams to compete outside of their Region. |
New Par/Yardage Requirements | To make it more equitable to host a Play Day at a standard Par 35, 36 or 37 nine hole golf course. |
Further Clarification Around Each Change
Updated Participation Requirement
Teams may participate in All-Star Play Days located in any one of the twelve Regions and their scores will be eligible for their Region’s leaderboard.
New Par/Yardage Requirements
Par: The host golf course may not manipulate the original par from the scorecard. If
extenuating circumstances exist (ie: course damage, forced carries, etc.), the Host PGA
Coach may only choose to reduce the overall total par (ie: from a 36 to a 35). (Note: This is unchanged from 2024).
Yardages:
For a course that is Par 35:
Girls 10-11: 2,100 - 2,300
Boys 10-11 and Girls 12-13: 2,350 - 2,550
Boys 12-13 and Girls 14-over: 2,600 - 2,800
Boys 14-over: 2,800 - 3,000
For a course that is Par 36:
Girls 10-11: 2,300 - 2,600
Boys 10-11 and Girls 12-13: 2,550 - 2,850
Boys 12-13 and Girls 14-over: 2,800 - 3,100
Boys 14-over: 3,200 - 3,500
For a course that is Par 37:
Girls 10-11: 2,600 - 2,800
Boys 10-11 and Girls 12-13: 2,850 - 3,050
Boys 12-13 and Girls 14-over: 3,100 - 3,300
Boys 14-over: 3,400 - 3,600
Note: When setting the tee markers (circle, pentagon, square and triangle), separate
tee markers should be utilized when possible. However, it is not a requirement to have
four different tee boxes as long as the yardage parameters are met.
